Zone has only the bare necessities for DNS functions?

The Domain Name System (DNS) is basically a large database which resides on various computers and it contains the names and IP addresses of various hosts on the internet and various domains. The Domain Name System is used to provide information to the Domain Name Service to use when queries are made. The service is the act of querying the database, and the system is the data structure and data itself. The Domain Name System is similar to a file system in Unix or DOS starting with a root. Branches attach to the root to create a huge set of paths. Each branch in the DNS is called a label. Each label can be 63 characters long, but most are less. Each text word between the dots can be 63 characters in length, with the total domain name (all the labels) limited to 255 bytes in overall length. The domain name system database is divided into sections called zones. The name servers in their respective zones are responsible for answering queries for their zones. A zone is a subtree of DNS and is administered separately. There are multiple name servers for a zone. There is usually one primary nameserver and one or more secondary name servers. A name server may be authoritative for more than one zone.

DNS names are assigned through the Internet Registries by the Internet Assigned Number Authority (IANA). The domain name is a name assigned to an internet domain. For example, mycollege.edu represents the domain name of an educational institution. The names microsoft.com and 3Com.com represent the domain names at those commercial companies. Naming hosts within the domain is up to individuals administer their domain.

Access to the Domain name database is through a resolver which may be a program or part of an operating system that resides on users workstations. In Unix the resolver is accessed by using the library functions "gethostbyname" and "gethostbyaddr". The resolver will send requests to the name servers to return information requested by the user. The requesting computer tries to connect to the name server using its IP address rather than the name.

The zone has all the essential and required records to help the dns server resolve the network queries to resolve ip to FQD and vice versa records like ns,soa, unscore zone etc contains all the information about the network.

Which account type is configured on an active directory doman controller and can be used to grant access to resources on any domain joined computer?

The enterprise admin.

Enterprise Admins (only appears in the forest root domain)

Members of this group have full control of all domains in the forest. By default, this group is a member of the Administrators group on all domain controllers in the forest. By default, the Administrator account is a member of this group. Because this group has full control of the forest, add users with caution.

Access this computer from the network; Adjust memory quotas for a process; Back up files and directories; Bypass traverse checking; Change the system time; Create a pagefile; Debug programs; Enable computer and user accounts to be trusted for delegation; Force shutdown from a remote system; Increase scheduling priority; Load and unload device drivers; Allow log on locally; Manage auditing and security log; Modify firmware environment values; Profile single process; Profile system performance; Remove computer from docking station; Restore files and directories; Shut down the system; Take ownership of files or other objects.

How do you view all the GCs in the forest?

C:\>repadmin /showreps

domain_controller

OR

You can use Replmon.exe for the same purpose.

OR

AD Sites and Services and nslookup gc._msdcs.

To find the in GC from the command line you can try using DSQUERY command.

dsquery server -isgc to find all the gc's in the forest

you can try dsquery server -forest -isgc.

Windows 2003 active directory contains both logical and physical components. what are the physical and logical components of active directory?

The physical component of Active directory contain all the physical subnet present in your network like domain controllers and replication between domain controllers.

The logical structure of active directory include forest, domains, tree, OUs and global catalogs.

Domain : a group of computer and other resources that are part of a windows server2003 network and share a common directory database.

Global catalog : Global catalog used to catch information about all object in a forest , the global catalog enables users and applications to find object in an active directory domain tree if the user or application knows one or more attributes of the target object.

Tree : Tree as is collection of Active directory Domain, that means the trust relationship can be used by all other domain in the forest as a means to access the domain.

Organization Unit - Organization Unit is a Active directory container into which object can be grouped for per mission management.

Forest : Active directory forest as due to represents the external boundary of the directory service.

These are two types of active directory forest :-

I) Single Forest

2) Multiple forest

In Microsoft Word 2000 why does your formatting apply to the whole paragraph not just the highlighted Word?

Go to Microsoft Article ID : 814085 which i found Formatting Is Applied to the Whole Document Instead of to the Selected Text in Word (814085) - When you select text and then apply formatting to this selection, the formatting may be applied to a larger portion of the document larger than the selected text, or it may even be applied to the whole document. ... the whole document whenever you apply manual formatting to that style.

Ensure you open your NORMAL.DOT to make the change otherwise it wont be found

What are directory partitions?

Configuration Contains the Configuration container, which stores configuration objects for the entire forest in cn=configuration,dc= forestRootDomain . Updates to this container are replicated to all domain controllers in the forest. Configuration objects store information about sites, services, and directory partitions. You can view the contents of the Configuration container by using ADSI Edit.

Schema Contains the Schema container, which stores class and attribute definitions for all existing and possible Active Directory objects in cn=schema,cn=configuration,dc= forestRootDomain . Updates to this container are replicated to all domain controllers in the forest. You can view the contents of the Schema container in the Active Directory Schema console.

Domain Contains a < domain > container (for example, the abc.com container), which stores users, computers, groups, and other objects for a specific Windows 2000 domain (for example, the abc.com domain). Updates to the < domain> container are replicated to only domain controllers within the domain and to Global Catalog servers if the update is made to an attribute that is marked for replication to the Global Catalog. The < domain > container is displayed in the Active Directory Users and Computers console. The hierarchy of domain directory partitions can be viewed in the Active Directory Domains and Trusts console, where trust relationships between domains can be managed.

Each directory partition is a contiguous portion of the directory tree, and each one starts at a single point (the directory partition head ) and spreads to either leaf nodes (for the schema and configuration directory partitions) or to the heads of other directory partitions below it (for domain directory partitions). Each directory partition, therefore, has exactly one directory partition immediately above it in the tree (except for a tree root domain directory partition, which has only the rootDSE above it) and possibly more directory partitions immediately below it

What is hosting a server?

Server hosting is an infrastructure delivery model that provides IT, users, with remote access to server resources (CPU, Memory, Disk, etc.) in order to power applications and store data without the hassle of buying, configuring, and maintaining the server hardware themselves.

What is the working principle of DNS server?

To resolve host names to IP address eg wiki.answers.com to 192.41.64.63 or YourComputerName to 192.168.1.XX

If it wasnt for this to access a website you would need to type the IP address of the site or to access a share on a computer in stead of typing \\computername you would need to type the computer IP

DNS also does the opposite IP to Hostname so you can do a lookup on an IP address and find out the hostname

for example if you go in to command promt and do tracert yourcompIP it will say tracing route of YourCOmputer Name [YourCOmputerIP]

What is the ISTG?

Windows 2000 Domain controllers each create Active Directory Replication connection objects representing inbound replication from intra-site replication partners. For inter-site replication, one domain controller per site has the responsibility of evaluating the inter-site replication topology and creating Active Directory Replication Connection objects for appropriate bridgehead servers within its site. The domain controller in each site that owns this role is referred to as the Inter-Site Topology Generator (ISTG). Krishna Pothula

Answer: Intersite Topology Generator (ISTG), which is responsible for the connections among the sites. By default Windows 2003 Forest level functionality has this role.
