You ll also find a discussion of administration tools that use the MMC. You can learn many techniques to help you better understand Microsoft Windows Server 2003, and indeed, as mentioned in the previous chapter, you must master the MMC before you can truly master Windows Server 2003. Introducing the MMC Compared to Microsoft Windows NT, the process of administration is much easier in Windows Server 2003. Mostly this is because of the MMC and the prepackaged administration tools that use it to help you more readily manage computers, users, and other aspects of the network environment. Not only does the MMC simplify administration, it also helps to integrate the many disparate tools that were previously available by using a single unified interface. The advantages of having a unified interface are significant because after you learn the structure of one MMC tool, you can apply what you ve learned to all the other MMC tools. Equally as significant is the capability to build your own consoles and customize existing consoles. You can in fact combine administrative components to build your own console configuration, and then store this console for future use. You would then have quick access to the tools you use the most through a single console. If you ve used the MMC in Microsoft Windows 2000, you might be wondering what s new in Windows Server 2003.

In all of the console tools and in the MMC framework, the Console menu has been renamed as the File menu. This was done to make the console more consistent with other Microsoft tools that have a File menu. Part 4: Managing Windows Server 2003 Systems
