active directory?

Question

where do i find the active directory and MMC in my comp

Answer 1

Active Directory is an implementation of LDAP directory services by Microsoft for use in Windows environments. Active Directory allows administrators to assign enterprise-wide policies, deploy programs to many computers, and apply critical updates to an entire organization. An Active Directory stores information and settings relating to an organization in a central, organized, accessible database. Active Directory networks can vary from a small installation with a few hundred objects, to a large installation with millions of objects.

Active Directory was previewed in 1996, released first with Windows 2000, and saw some revision to extend functionality and improve administration in Windows Server 2003.

Active Directory was called NTDS (NT Directory Service) in older Microsoft documents. This name remains in some AD binaries as well.

You will find a client on your machine if its a desktop.

Answer 2

Unless you are running Windows 200 Server family or Windows 2003 Server family, configured as a domain controller, you do not have active directory.

If you do then you can access it via Start -> Administrative Tools

There is a LOT to learn about AD before you mess with it. I hope you are playing with a test setup and not a mission critical system. People do degrees in this stuff.

verify the LAN community, is there any cable disconnection situation. also ask the administrator even if he banned the computer or banned you pc from viewing different pc.
