Windows Server 2003
Microsoft's Windows Server 2003 operating system
provides a dependable, enterprise-ready computing
environment that brings significant improvements over
its predecessor, Windows 2000 Server. These new features
take the next step forward in building on the core of
reliability, availability, scalability, and security
introduced in Windows 2000 Server, making Windows Server
2003 the fastest, most reliable, and most secure Windows
server operating system ever.

customers.

Features of Microsoft Windows Server 2003
Windows Server 2003 provides a wealth of powerful new
features and improved functionality over Windows 2000
Server. Highlights include: |
| |
- Active Directory performance and flexibility is
faster and more robust over unreliable WAN
connections thanks to more efficient synchronization
and replication as well as caching of credentials in
branch office domain controllers.
- Enhancements to the Distributed File System (DFS)
and Encrypting File System (EFS) allow for powerful,
flexible file sharing and storage.
- Enhanced Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)
providers and command-line tools for server tasks
give administrators great granular control.
- To make storage and backup easier, Windows
Server 2003 includes the Volume Shadow Copy Service
(VSS), which provides point-in-time backups of
networked shares. Users can easily access previous
versions of their files through the Windows Explorer
by right-clicking on a file or folder.
- Windows Server 2003 is optimized for hosting
XML-based Web services thanks to native support of
Microsoft .NET and XML with the inclusion of the
.NET Framework.
- Significant networking enhancements in Windows
Server 2003 include Internet Protocol version 6
(IPv6), Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPoE),
and Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) over Network
Address Translation (NAT).
- Common Language Runtime (CLR) safeguards
networks from malicious or poorly designed code.
- Credential Management provides a secure store of
user credentials, including passwords and public key
infrastructure (X.509) certificates. This provides a
single sign-on experience for users, including
roaming users.
- The Encrypting File System (EFS) is the
technology used to store encrypted files on NTFS
volumes. Encrypted files and folders are easy to use
as they appear just like any other file or
folder—transparent to authorized users but
inaccessible to anyone else. EFS is particularly
beneficial for mobile users who may face a higher
risk of computer loss or theft.
- Enhanced support for virtual private network (VPN)
technologies, including a remote access server that
supports both dial-up and virtual private network
connections, providing flexibility and security for
remote access.
- 802.1x wireless network support provides
security and performance improvements for wireless
local area networks (LANs). These include automatic
key management, user authentication and
authorization prior to LAN access. Fast recovery
virtually eliminates packet corruption and
interruption over high-latency wireless network
connections.
- Headless server provides the ability to install
and manage a computer without a monitor, VGA display
adaptor, keyboard, or mouse. Support for management
controllers and management ports allows servers to
be managed even when a system has crashed.
- Auto-configuration for multiple networks
provides the mobile computer user seamless
operations on both office and home networks without
having to manually reconfigure TCP/IP settings.
- Voice over IP (VoIP) enhances Remote Assistance
by enabling a voice session at the time the Remote
Help Connection is established.
