Windows Server 2008 will deliver new value to organizations by insuring all users regardless of location are able to get the full complement of services from the network
The New Look and Feel of Windows Server 2008
|
|
The first thing that new Server 2008 users will notice is the new look and feel of Windows Server 2008. If fact, if you have used Windows Vista, you will notice how similar it is to Windows Server 2008.

This new look and feel is something that will take some getting used to. As Windows system admins, we are used to going to the same place, over and over, to accomplish the same task. Because of this, initially, you may feel a little lost in Windows Server 2008.

For example, one of the first things is that the Run command was missing from the Start Menu. Now you just have to click on the Start Search area of the Start Menu and type in the command that you need.

Enhanced Security Features of Windows Server 2008
|
|
As Microsoft says that Windows Server 2008 is the “most secure” server OS they have every created, we want to take a minute to touch on the security features of Server 2008. The followings are:
|
|
|
- Active Directory Federation Service - allows administrators to easily set up trust relationships with federation partners.
- Read-Only Domain Controllers - these domain controllers will be used in environments where you need a domain controller but you cannot guarantee the physical security of the server.
- Server Core Installation - a new type of install of Windows Server 2008 that will allow you to only install the typical Windows network infrastructure services – DHCP, DNS, file sharing, and domain controller functions. What is a big change for most admins is that if you choose to use the “server core” installation, there will be no local GUI interface to the OS.
- Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption - allows you to encrypt all of the hard drives on a server. This will prevent the data from being viewed if a hard drive or the server is stolen.
- Password and account lockout policy improvements - offers the ability to have multiple password and account policies in a single domain.
