Question
Answer
attribute   A characteristic associated with a folder or file used to help manage access.  
🗑
auditing   In Windows Server 2008, a security capability that tracks activity on an object, such as reading, writing, creating, or deleting a file in a folder.  
🗑
compiler   A program that reads lines of program code in a source file and converts the code into machine-language instructions the computer can execute.  
🗑
DFS topology   Applies to a domain-based DFS model and encompasses the DFS namespace root, shared folders, and replication folders.  
🗑
Directory Service Client (DSCIient)   Microsoft software for pre-Windows 2000 clients that connect to Windows 2000 Server, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Server 2008 and enables those clients to view information published in Active Directory.  
🗑
discretionary access control list (DACL)   An access control list that manages access to an object, such as a folder, and that is configured by a server administrator or owner of the object.  
🗑
disk quota   Allocating a specific amount of disk space to a user or application with the ability to ensure that the user or application cannot use more disk space than is specified in the allocation.  
🗑
Distributed File System (DFS)   A system that enables folders shared from multiple computers to appear as though they exist in one centralized hierarchy of folders instead of on many different computers.  
🗑
domain-based DFS model   A DFS model that uses Active Directory and is available only to servers and workstations that are members of a particular domain. DFS shared folders in the domain-based model can be replicated for fault tolerance and load balancing.  
🗑
dynamic-link library (DLL) files   A library of files containing program code that can be called and run by Windows applications (and with SUA, also used by UNIX/Linux applications). See Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications.  
🗑
Encrypting File System (EFS)   Set by an attribute of NTFS, enables a user to encrypt the contents of a folder or a file so that it can only be accessed via private key code by the user who encrypted it.  
🗑
folder target   A path in the Universal Naming Convention (UNC) format, such as to a DFS shared folder or to a different DFS path.  
🗑
inherited permissions   Permissions of a parent object that also apply to child objects of the parent, such as to subfolders within a folder.  
🗑
load balancing   On a single server, distributing resources across multiple server disk drives and paths for better server response; and on multiple network servers, distributing resources across two or more servers for better server and network performance.  
🗑
namespace root   The main container that holds DFS links to shared folders in a domain.  
🗑
ownership   Having the privilege to change permissions and to fully manipulate an object. The account that creates an object, such as a folder or printer, initially has ownership.  
🗑
permissions   In Windows Server 2008, privileges to access and manipulate resource objects, such as folders and printers; for example, the privilege to read a file or to create a new file.  
🗑
publish   Making an object, such as a printer or shared folder, available for users to access when they view Active Directory contents and so that the data associated with the object can be replicated.  
🗑
replication group   A grouping of shared folders in a DFS namespace root that are replicated or copied to all servers that participate in DFS replication.  
🗑
Server for Network Information Services   A service that Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications (SUA) can add to AD to make a Server 2008 server a Network Information Services server for coordinating management of user and groups between UNIX/Linux computers and Server 2008 servers on the same net  
🗑
share permissions   Permissions that apply to a particular object that is shared over a network, such as a shared folder or printer.  
🗑
shell   An interface between the user and the operating system.  
🗑
stand-alone DFS model   A DFS model in which no Active Directory implementation is available to help manage the shared folders. This model provides only a single or fl at level share.  
🗑
Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications (SUA)   A subsystem that can be installed in Windows Server 2008 for using UNIX and Linux commands, applications, and scripts.  
🗑
system control ACL (SACL)   An access control list that contains settings to audit the access to an object, such as a folder.  
🗑
Universal Naming Convention (UNC)   A naming convention that designates network servers, computers, and shared resources. The format for a UNC name is, for example, \\servername\namespace\folder\file.  
🗑
