Directory (computing)

In computing, a directory is a file system cataloging structure which contains references to other computer files, and possibly other directories. On many computers, directories are known as folders, catalogs (catalog was used on the Apple II, the Commodore 128 and some other early home computers as a command for displaying disk contents; the filesystems used by these did not support hierarchal directories), or drawers to provide some relevancy to a workbench or the traditional office file cabinet.

Files are organized by storing related files in the same directory. In a hierarchical filesystem (that is, one in which files and directories are organized in a manner that resembles a tree), a directory contained inside another directory is called a subdirectory. The terms parent and child are often used to describe the relationship between a subdirectory and the directory in which it is cataloged, the latter being the parent. The top-most directory in such a filesystem, which does not have a parent of its own, is called the root directory.

Class Notes DC's or Domain Controllers are the server that control the Active Directory Service Domains are made up of Domain Controllers and Member PC's and Servers. There can be multiple Domain Controllers in a Domain for fault Tolerance and Load Balancing. DC's keep data synchronized through replication. The schedule for replication is called the "replication strategy". DC's can be grouped into Sites. Sites are comprised of Domain Controllers located at the same geographic location. Sites are used to reduce bandwidth consumption used due to Replication. DC's are normally set to be Read/ Write. For security purposes you can make DC's Read only. Read Only DC's are used at Remote Offices to lessen the danger of Hacking. Sites are connected through Site Links Sites can Replicate Through Site Link Bridges. Site Link Bridges are kind of like routers for replication. Global Catalog Servers store searchable Indexes of the Active Directory database. There should be at least one Global catalog server at each site. It is best to use Microsoft's built in DNS Server on a Windows Server 2012 network. You can use a Unix DNS Server, but... WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) was Microsoft's attempt to compete with DNS. You will rarely ever see it, but if you have very old legacy systems you may need to create a WINS server. Using Microsoft's DHCP Server is usually the best bet on a Windows Domain. Using Windows DNS and DHCP allow for multiple servers for fault tolerance and increased security.

Class Notes To Create/ Administer Accounts go to -- Server Manager -- Tools -- Active Directory Users and Computers "User Must Change Password at Next Login" forces users to change their password when they login. This is used when IT people reset users passwords to a default to force users to create their own passwords. "User cannot change password" is used generally for systems that are used by multiple people and you don't want a user locking out the other users. "Account Disabled" allows you to disable and account without deleting it. You can set accounts to automatically expire, and allow access only during certain hours. Resources
