Introduction to Active Directory
Overview of Active Directory
• Directory services of the Windows server
system
• Stores information about network object and
makes the information available to
administrators, users, and applications
• Provides a single point of network
management allowing people to add, remove,
and relocate users and resources easily
• Integrated with Internet’s hierarchical
domain naming system
Active Directory Properties
• Integration with DNS
• Flexible querying
• Information security
• Simplified administration
• Scalability
Object and Schema
• Objects are the basic entities that
constitute the Active Directory
– Each object will have it own globally
unique identifier (GUID)
• Schema
– Describes the object classes
– Defines the attributes for the object classes
Structural Components
• Objects based hierarchical structure
with constructs
– Domains
– Trees
– Forests
– Trust relationships
– Organizational Units
– Sites
A Simple Active Directory
Structure
Active Directory and DNS
Integration
Parent and child domains in a domain tree. Double-headed arrows indicate
two-way transitive trust relationships
Tree
One forest with three domain trees. The three root
domains are not contiguous with each other, but
EuropeRoot.com and AsiaRoot.com are child
domains of HQ-Root.com.
Forests
Shortcut trusts between Domains B and D, and between
Domains D and 2
Internal Trusts in a Forest
Trust Relationships
• Transitive
• Two-way
• Shortcut trusts
• External trusts
Trust Relationships
Intra-site replication with just one domain .
Organizational Units
Intra-site replication with two domains and two
global catalogs
Trust Relationships
Directory Protocols
• Based on standard directory protocols
• Interoperate with other protocols
• Example: LDAP
– LDAP it is used to add, modify, delete and query
information stored in AD
– LDAP to AD is like SQL to Oracle
– LDAP determines how a client can access the
directory, operations within the directory and
share directory data
Active Directory Security
• Based on Kerberos
• Supports multiple security configurations for
cross platform interoperability
– Clients: A domain controller will authenticate
clients running RFC-1510 Kerberos. This will
include other clients running other operating
systems.
– Unix clients and services: A Kerberos principal is
mapped to a Windows 2000 user or computer
account
Installation Of Active Directory
Requirements
• The computer must be Windows 2k, 2k3 Server,
Advanced Server or Datacenter Server.
• At least one volume on the computer must be
formatted with NTFS.
• DNS must be active on the network prior to AD
installation or be installed during AD installation.
• DNS must support SRV records and be dynamic.
• The computer must have IP protocol installed and
have a static IP address.
• The Kerberos v5 authentication protocol must be
installed.
• Time and zone information must be correct.

Role of DNS
•Clients use DNS to locate Active
Directory controllers.
•Servers and client computers register their
names and IP addresses with the DNS
server

Managing Groups
Group Policy Feature
• Defines the various components of the
users desktop environment that an
administrator must manage
• Applies not only to user and client
computers but also to member servers,
domain controllers, and other 2003
server in scope of management
Group Policy cont’d
• Manage registry-based policy with
Administrative Templates
• Assign scripts. This includes scripts such as
computer startup, shutdown, logon, and
logoff
• redirect folders, such as My Documents and
My Pictures, from the Documents and
Settings folder on the local computer to
network locations
Configuring a Custom Console
Adding a Group Policy Object
Auditing
Auditing

Some Auditable Activities
• Account logon and logon events
• Object access
• Account management
• Directory service access
• Policy change
• System events
• Process tracking
• Privilege
Some Auditing Function
• Logon/Logout
