RE: [ActiveDir] computers in active directory
Domain-member computers are security principals in Windows networks, which means they have names in Active Directory, and authenticate to Active Directory when they boot up. -gil From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Grumpy Nounet Sent: Mon 2/14/2005 8:24 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] computers in active directory Hello, I'm studying a compter network using active directory to authenticate the users.

You have to remeber that in AD computer account is also security principal, which means that You can assign permissions to the computer account - to do thata it has to have an account in a domain. To authenticate users against AD and process scripts and GPOs computer also has to be a member of a domain, thus it has to have an account (user is able to authenticate against AD and gain access to the domain resources even from the computer which is not a part of a domain when the user will supply correct domain credentials) So You can say - yes, computer accounts have something to deal with authentication in AD -- Tomasz Onyszko [MVP] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.w2k.pl List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ: http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/

Z.V. That's not a helpful response and it's somewhat insulting. There's no minimum level for questions on this list. Remember that nearly all of us started out with little or no knowledge of AD.

Heck I like those Idiot books. Those are generally very well written. I think I still have a copy of some Idiot's guide to AD laying about and have been known to open it and look things up even after I wrote my first AD program. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tony Murray-Smith Sent: Monday, February 14, 2005 10:54 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] computers in active directory [List Owner] Z.V.
