D2- Evaluate typical services available from a
network operating system directory service.
Evaluate typical services available from a network operating system directory service.
In this report I will be explaining the different directory services available for networks and
there operating systems. I will go on to talk about the account management, authentication
management, active directory and DNS. I will talk about the features of this and where they
can be used in certain areas. I will then go on to talk about the advantages and
disadvantages of each of these directory services and then sum up everything with a
concluding statement.



Directory services:
Account management is important for many networks and the users connected to it as it
allows for certain powers for each user. Account management has the power to edit the user
and the type of account it is, adding and removing users of the network and granting
accessing to specific areas but normally this is strictly monitored. Many important
organisations use this that manage a large number of users so for example when a new
person joins the organisation a new user is created using the account management and
their policies are set and the same rule applies when a person leaves the organisation.
Account management can also chance powers for certain users for example a higher level
person in the business which gained promotion can get higher access to be a computer
administrator and allow for local machine editing. Account management will not affect any of
the other computers connected on the network for example if someone decided to change
their account picture it will not change any of the other users on the network.
Advantages Disadvantages
Account management provides good security The biggest disadvantage of account
