I never try this utitlity but today I was testing this in a new deployment process and Now I say, it is wonderfull, really we can join member servers and workstations from instalation media with Setup /unattend:AutoAttend.XML and Djoin.exe for example: 1.

[ERROR] Cannot find at least one domain controller running Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 or later in domain 'DC=DCName,DC=com,DC=DCName'.

Vulnerabilities in Internet Authentication Service

This security update resolves two privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The more severe of these vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if messages received by the Internet Authentication Service server are copied incorrectly into memory when handling PEAP authentication attempts. On Windows Server 2008, the Internet Authentication Service is replaced by Network Policy Server (NPS). An attacker who successfully exploited either of these vulnerabilities could take complete control of an affected system. Servers using Internet Authentication Service or Network Policy Server are only affected when using PEAP with MS-CHAP v2 authentication. This security update is rated Critical for Windows Server 2008 for 32-bit Systems Service Pack 2 and Windows Server 2008 for x64-based Systems Service Pack 2. For all other affected and supported releases of Windows, see the subsection, Affected and Non-Affected Software , in this section. See: http://support

Security Considerations for Windows Mobile Messaging in the Enterprise

Overview Securing servers, client computers, and mobile devices becomes even more vital as workers and contractors connect from multiple wired and wireless networks that may employ varying levels of security features. Employees can inadvertently put their businesses at risk by connecting to mission-critical systems over mobile networks and applications and unintentionally transmitting viruses or corrupt data. In addition, passing critical corporate data through an outside network operations center may increase the risk of compromise or unavailability. With the right technologies and network architecture in place, however, network administrators can help dramatically improve the security and management of mobile device connections. The key to a successful deployment is carefully planning how to handle permissions and security rights for these mobile workers. Microsoft® products offer a broad set of security-related technologies to help you construct a sound defense against in

DNS client settings in Windows 2000 Server and in Windows Server 2003

  Hace algunos días, me preguntaban como configurar los DNS primario y secundario de los controladores de dominio, pues bien aquí dejo las opciones que tenemos al realizar esta configuración: Configure the Preferred DNS server in TCP/IP properties on each Domain Controller to use itself as Primary DNS Server. Advantages: Ensures that DNS queries originating from the Domain Controller will be resolved locally if possible. Will minimize impact of Domain Controller’s DNS queries on the network Disadvantages: Dependant on Active Directory replication to ensure that DNS zone is up to date. Lengthy replication failures may result in an incomplete set of entries in the zone. Configure all Domain Controllers to use a centralized DNS server as their Preferred DNS Server. Advantages: Minimizes the reliance on Active Directory replication for DNS zone updates of Domain Controller locator records. This includes faster discovery of new or
