What you need for this book

This book is oriented towards Windows 2003 Server R2 and Active Directory used in that release. Notes identify where commands vary from older Windows 2003 versions, and provide the equivalent commands in these older versions. As Microsoft is phasing out Windows 2000, we are omitting it entirely. However, the disaster recovery guidelines outlined in this book are applicable to any Active Directory environment, because they haven't changed that much. Please note that in order to get the most out of this book you should be running Windows 2003.
