Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Help:
Consulting and Technical Support
Windows Server 2003
The Windows Server 2003 operating system provides a reliable, enterprise-class networking platform that brings significant enhancements over the earlier Windows 2K Server. These added features strengthen the foundation of availability, expandability and security offered by Windows 2000, making Microsoft Windows 2003 Server faster, more dependable, and more secure than previous releases of Microsoft Windows server operating system.
The Windows Server 2003 family comprises four editions:
- Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition, is a reliable server OS for the common needs of companies of all sizes, providing an effective answer for data and peripheral sharing, protected Internet connectivity, centralized desktop application management, and a powerful connected environment among workers, partners, and clients.
- Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition, is the operating system of choice for big enterprises and for small and mid-size companies to create, deliver, and secure reliable applications, Web commerce, and network architecture.
- Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition, is best suited for business-critical applications that demand high levels of expandability and availability.
- Windows Server 2003, Web Edition, is optimized for serving web pages, while maintaining the core functions that provide enhanced dependability, manageability, and protection.
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 offers a wealth of productive features and improved functionality over Windows 2000 Server. Improvements include:
- Active Directory performance and flexibility is faster and more dependable over unreliable wide area network links because of faster synchronization and replication plus storing of credentials in branch office domain controllers.
- Improvements to the Distributed File System (DFS) and Encrypting File System enable highly functional, flexible file access and storage.
- Advanced Windows Management Instrumentation providers and command-line utilities for server tasks give administrators exceptional granular control.
- To make file storage and backup simpler, Windows Server 2003 incorporates the Volume Shadow Copy Service, which provides time-specific backups of networked shares. Users can easily recover previous versions of their files through the familiar Windows Explorer utility by simply right-clicking on a name or icon.
- Windows Server 2003 is ideal for hosting XML-based Web services as a result of native support of .NET and XML with the incorporation of the .NET Framework.
- Important networking enhancements in MS Windows Server 2003 include Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet, and Internet Protocol Security over Network Address Translation.
- Common Language Runtime safeguards systems from malicious or badly written software.
- Credential Management provides a secure depository of user credentials, including passwords and public key infrastructure (X.509) certificates. This allows a single sign-on experience for users, including roaming ones.
- The Encrypting File System (EFS) is the technique utilized to hold encrypted files on NTFS volumes. Encrypted files and folders are easy to work with because they appear just the same as any other file: transparent to authorized users but unavailable to anyone else. The Encrypting File System (EFS) is especially beneficial for mobile clients who may face a greater danger of computer loss or theft.
- Enhanced compatibility with VPN technologies, such as a remote access server that provides both dial-up and virtual private network links, offering flexibility and security for remote connectivity.
- 802.1x wireless support provides security and speed enhancements for wireless local area networks. These include automatic key management and user authentication prior to network access. Prompt recovery practically does away with packet corruption and interruption over high-latency wireless links.
- Headless server provides the capability to install and manage a computer without a monitor, VGA display adaptor, keyboard, or mouse. Compatibility with management controllers and ports allows servers to be controlled even when a computer has died.
- Auto-configuration for multiple networks provides the mobile computer client transparent operations on both office and home environments without being required to manually redo TCP/IP settings.
- Voice over IP (VoIP) enhances Remote Assistance by supporting a voice session at the time the Remote Help Connection is initiated.
