Posted by mcsenow on November 30, 2010 in Uncategorized

 

Domain naming master is a forest-wide operations master role. It is required to keep track of all the domains within an Active Directory forest. The domain controller with the domain naming master role is accessed whenever domains are added to or removed from a tree or forest. There can be only one domain naming master per forest. The domain naming master ensures that no two domains having the same name exist in the same tree.

What are security templates?

Posted by mcsenow on November 27, 2010 in Uncategorized
Security templates are used to apply consistent security to multiple computers. Security templates work as a security policy, but they can be applied to any computer and provide an easy way to apply a customized set of default security settings. A security template is a file that contains security configurations. Security configurations can be made by using security templates as follows:

  • Applying the security templates to a local computer.
  • Importing the security templates to a group policy object (GPO).

Security templates can also be used to analyze the security of the network computers.
