A process server is allowed to follow and stalk you. Their job is to track down a person and hand them legal papers. This, inevitably, involves following and stalking people who may not want to be found.

The best way i have found to do this is to setup a sever dedicated to Logs and perfomace moniter. Set it up to moniter other servers in the Domain Remotly. This usually reduses Overhead in the servers and is alot easier to do some realtime monitering and check Logs

Raise the Domain Functional Level for 2008 server

Applies To: Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2

When you install Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) on a server running Windows Server 2008 R2, a set of basic Active Directory features is enabled by default. In addition to the basic Active Directory features on individual domain controllers, there are new domain-wide and forest-wide Active Directory features available when all domain controllers in a domain or forest are running Windows Server 2008 R2.

For the new domain-wide features to be enabled, all domain controllers in the domain must be running Windows Server 2008 R2, and the domain functional level must be raised to Windows Server 2008 R2.

Membership required: Domain Admins or Enterprise Admins

To raise the domain functional level

1.Open Active Directory Domains and Trusts. To open Active Directory Domains and Trusts, click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Active Directory Domains and Trusts.

2.In the console tree, right-click the domain for which you want to raise functional level, and then click Raise Domain Functional Level.

3.In Select an available domain functional level, do one of the following:

* To raise the domain functional level to Windows Server 2008, click Windows Server 2008, and then click Raise.

* To raise the domain functional level to Windows Server 2008 R2, click Windows Server 2008 R2, and then click Raise.

Caution

Do not raise the domain functional level to a later version (such as Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2) if you have or will have any domain controllers running earlier versions of Windows Server.

Important

After you set the domain functional level to a certain value, you cannot roll back or lower the domain functional level, with one exception: when you raise the domain functional level to Windows Server 2008 R2 and if the forest functional level is Windows Server 2008 or lower, you have the option of rolling the domain functional level back to Windows Server 2008. You can lower the domain functional level only from Windows Server 2008 R2 to Windows Server 2008. If the domain functional level is set to Windows Server 2008 R2, it cannot be rolled back, for example, to Windows Server 2003.

That depends entirely on the business model of the domain. The point of a BDC is to eliminate down time, and in smaller companies or companies that do not rely heavily on their computer network, downtime is not an issue and the extra cost involved with the BDC does not outweigh its usage.

One of the new features receiving close attention in Windows 2008 is a new breed of domain controllers referred to as Read-Only Domain Controllers, also known as RODCs. The RODC hosts a copy of the Active Directory (AD) database like any other writable domain controller, but as its name implies, the contents replica of the domain database residing on the domain controller is read-only and write operations are not supported. It is equally important to mention that the RODCs do not participate in Active directory replication in the same fashion as writable domain controllers. The fundamental difference between RODC replication and the typical multimaster replication model between writable domain controllers is that RODCs replication is unidirectional. This means all changes from a writable domain controller are propagated to the RODCs. As a result, the RODC receives changes, but does not partake in or perform outbound replication with other domain controllers.

Read-only domain controllers (RODCs) in Active Directory, intended for use in branch office or other scenarios where a domain controller may reside in a low physical security environment. The RODC holds a non-writeable copy of Active Directory, and redirects all write attempts to a Full Domain Controller. It replicates all accounts except sensitive ones.In RODC mode, credentials are not cached by default. Moreover, only the replication partner of the RODC needs to run Windows Server 2008. Also, local administrators can log on to the machine to perform maintenance tasks without requiring administrative rights on the domain.

The DNS Server Role and the active directory is not installed till the adds service is started on the server 2008.if the service is not started(one needs to check the option under roles of the server)the active directory installation wont happen.this feature is only in 2008 not in 2003.The active directory works as service in 2008

There is no one person "responsible" for network security in terms of "inventing" it. There are many people over a period of decades that have contributed to some aspect of security.

The best security policy for this situation is one that requires the use of a VPN connection and the appropriate authentication.

Make sure the settings are correct. I know you looked at them a thousand times but,,

255.255.255.000

And make sure 192.168.00#.00# . if you use 168.192.00#.00# this will cause an administrator setting in your computer which conflicts with you servers programmed dominance. Placing 168 first is cool to use on small home/office networks cause you can see them but they can';t see you. :>)

Sorry but I think the question "What can you do to promote a server to DC if you're in a remote location with slow WAN link" is different.

There may be many scenario's wherein you have to build a DC remotely and connection speed is slow. It may take a very long time to build the DC. The solution for this is the new feature called New Domain Controller from Replica. Steps Involved are

Take a NTBackup from a DC

Put in a disk and ship it to the desired location

Restore to the prospective New DC

Decrease initial replication load
