Server 2008 Active Directory -- Creating Users is Easy!

You probably already know that a User Account is an Active Directory Object, or simply said, a record in an AD database.

Most of the time we create user accounts for people, however user accounts can also be created for applications or processes.

User accounts allow a person to access resources on a network. But we can just as easily deny access to certain resources on the network through the user account. That’s why, User Account Objects are quite important and very useful.

Today I’ll show you how easy it is to create a new user account. I'll also show you how to create a user template and how to use a template — all on your brand new Windows Server 2008!

Next week we’ll discuss User Groups and Organizational Units, but right now let’s get started with creating a user account.

Less is More -- Windows 2008 Server Core

In this day of powerful servers just an inch thick, it is easy to forget that just ten years ago a server was a very large computer.

In today's modern networks, servers are routinely configured to perform a single specific task -- and this is where the Windows 2008 Server Core Install comes in.

Find out how the Server Core can provide you better security, easier maintenance and use up fewer resources. I'll also discuss how the Core can be accessed and managed and the Server Roles that are available for a Core Server Install.

It seems Microsoft may have finally created a version of IIS that will compete against Apache for functionality and performance. IIS 7 is a giant step forward for the IIS platform and offers some major enhancements.

In this article we will explore installing and enabling the basic features of IIS and placing a static website into service.
