Expert Track: Updating Systems Engineer Skills from Microsoft Windows 2000 to Windows Server 2003

Workshop 2210—Three days—Instructor-led

Introduction

This three-day, instructor-led workshop provides students with the knowledge and new skills that they need to plan, implement, and maintain a Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003 networked environment.

This discovery-based workshop consists primarily of labs that provide hands-on experience focused exclusively on the skills and objectives that align with Exam 70-296: Planning, Implementing, and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Environment for an MCSE Certified on Microsoft Windows® 2000.

Audience

This workshop is intended for expert Windows 2000 systems engineers who plan, implement, and support Windows 2000-based Microsoft Active Directory® directory service networks. The workshop assumes extensive, day-to-day, practical, hands-on experience using Windows 2000 and a preference for learning by doing and discovering in a non-prescriptive lab environment. For a more traditional learning experience, see Course 2297: Planning, Implementing, Managing and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Environment for an MCSE on Windows 2000.

After completing this workshop, students will be able to:

•

Plan a Domain Name System (DNS) strategy for an enterprise organization.

•

Plan for an implementation of Active Directory and for Active Directory replication.

•

Implement Active Directory and DNS.
