A Microsoft active directory, in simple terms, is like a giant telephone book that organizes within
it all of the computers and people that have been entered into it. In our case our active directory
is called ADS (for Active Directory Service). Unlike a telephone book however ADS is not
sorted alphabetically, but rather like the yellow pages by category, in our case by department.
This allows us to mimic the universities administrative structure for Academic Support
departments.
Administrators use an active directory to apply policies to objects (computers and users), put
people into security groups (to allow and deny access to resources), and to better keep track of
things in groups (called Organizational Units). Clients can make use of an active directory to
look up names, phone numbers and any number of other attributes allowed by administrators.
ADS is more than this though. It is the central authentication domain used by Quest and to log
onto Academic Support computers, to name a few. It is synchronized regularly with UWdir.
Many corporate resources authenticate against ADS and it makes our lives easier by giving us
one central place to maintain these accounts.

administrative account. When that user is added to the appropriate security groups, use that account to add
