Active Directory and Windows 2000
With the new version of Windows 2000, a number of new concepts and technologies
are introduced. Basically, the concepts of the processes implemented with
UserManagemeNT remain unchanged. It is therefor that the basic ideas and
principles behind the functionality of UserManagemeNT still hold: with
just a few mouse clicks, any user with little or no knowledge of Windows
2000/NT can create new user accounts, change passwords and so on. To make
things even easier, the different windows in UserManagemeNT have not changed
significantly although the UserManagemeNT application can now fully operate
and make use of Windows 2000 and the Active Directory.
You can use UserManagemeNT on Windows 2000 in mixed and native mode,
with the combination of Windows NT 4 and Windows 2000. This is also true
for the UserManagemeNT Delegation service. So now you can create user
accounts in the Active Directory from a Windows 9x workstation using UserManagemeNT
Delegation!
Starting from version 5.0, UserManagemeNT supports Windows 2000 and
Active Directory. All UserManagemeNT applications (user interface, delegation
service, and command line interface) run on both Windows NT 4.0 and Windows
2000. Further, UserManagemeNT can fully make use of the benefits of the
Active Directory. You can for instance create new user accounts in domains
or organizational units. See Specify
domains and users to manage for more information.
Further, you can specify all attributes for new user accounts that are
supported by the Active Directory. For this purpose, an extra window is
introduced: User attributes and properties.
See User attributes and properties
for more information.
