Password protects any program installed on your computepassword doorr

 

There are a lot of fine software installed on your computer. You know them well: MS-Office, Winzip, ICQ, IE, AcdSee, Outlook express, just to name a few. Most of them have no password protection, so anyone who shares your workstation can launch one of these applications and use it to browse or modify your data that was created by it. You don't want to have to learn to use new software, but you do want the password protection feature for your existing software. Now you can use Password Door to add password protection to any software. When software is protected by Password Door, anyone who wants to use that software must enter the correct password in order to launch it.

This book is for people who want to learn about Windows Server 2003, Micro$oft�s latest Windows-based network operating system. No experience with any prior version of Windows is required, although a familiarity with the Windows user interface is definitely helpful. You should have a basic understanding of computer networking, as Windows Server 2003 relies heavily on networking technologies. This book focuses on the many features of Windows Server 2003, including advanced topics like Terminal Services and Certificate Services. The purpose of this book is to teach you enough to begin working with Windows Server 2003 on a regular basis; only time and practice will make you an expert with such a complex product.

This book is designed to teach you the fundamental job tasks that most corporate network administrators need to know in just a single weekend. You�ll learn through a series of very short, very focused sessions that each teach you how to accomplish a specific, key job task.

This book jumps right in by showing you the various ways to install Windows Server 2003. From there, the sessions introduce the materials you�re most likely to need as an administrator of Windows Server 2003 computers, especially file and print services.

Later sessions introduce more advanced topics, like Terminal Services, security, and TCP/IP. I�ll walk you through all the major TCP/IP technologies, including DNS, DHCP, WINS, FTP, IIS, and more (don�t worry � all of those acronyms will make sense by Saturday evening). I�ll wrap up this Crash Course with really advanced topics, like Windows Clustering, troubleshooting, performance optimization, and Certificate Services.

This book will be useful for those administrators who currently work with Windows 2000 domains and for those who are planning to deploy Active Directory on Windows .NET servers. For an administrator, the new version of Active Directory does not have any new principle features, and all options that are only available on Windows .NET servers are specifically described in the book. Therefore, an administrator can deal with any version of Active Directory domains and compare the working environment's features with those that were on the old platform.

One probably would not even consider repairing a defective car or a complex electronic device without special additional tools and facilities. Nonetheless, administrators who work with Active Directory often forget that the problems which come up in the process of working with Active Directory are also impossible to eliminate without the help of the appropriate tools and utilities. Most of the tools that you need for working with Active Directory (and that are looked at in this book) are furnished along with the system, and are found in the Windows Support Tools pack. This book is dedicated, to a large extent, to working with exactly these tools. A few tools and scripts from the Windows 2000 Server Resource Kit are also considered, since they work properly in the Windows .NET environment.

Besides, the author would like to turn administrators' attention to methods of program access to Active Directory, and in part to scripts that use the Active Directory Service Interfaces (ADSI). Scripts can be used to solve many administrative tasks, and you may use already written scripts after a minimal number of modifications to fit your needs. Creating scripts does not require you to be a highly qualified programmer — a fact which the author tried to get across in the last two chapters of the book.

This book is geared towards a relatively prepared reader, one who has already had some experience working with Windows 2000, and is familiar with the basic work methods and components of the system (e.g., with Microsoft Management Console snap-ins). However, information on these questions can easily be found in the Help system.
