Study Notes
Computer Objects in Active Directory
- A computer object in Active Directory represents a computer that is part of the domain.
- If a user tries to log on to an AD domain from a computer without a valid computer account, the authentication attempt will fail.
Computer Object Passwords
- Computer object passwords in Active Directory are managed through a secure process that involves periodically changing the password.
Adding a Computer to an Active Directory Domain
- The steps involved in adding a computer to an Active Directory domain include: creating a computer object in the domain, configuring the computer to join the domain, and rebooting the computer to finalize the process.
Computer Domain Join
- When a computer joins a domain in Active Directory, it receives a domain-specific configuration, and its security settings are defined by the domain's Group Policy.
Group Permissions
- The advantage of using groups for assigning permissions is that it simplifies the management of access control, as permissions can be assigned to the group rather than individual users.
- When a user's access needs to be revoked, removing the user from the group will automatically revoke their access.
Access Tokens
- The purpose of an access token in Windows Server is to provide authenticated users with a set of privileges and access rights that define their access to resources on the network.
- An access token is generated for a user in Windows Server when they log on to the network.
- Adding a user to a group while the user is logged on to the network in Windows Server does not affect their current access token, but the changes will take effect when they log on again.
