Networks, LAN & WAN:           

Have you considered upgrading your old NT Network? Are your client workstations still running Windows 98? We can help migrate your system into the 21st century and give you all the latest benefits and features that the Windows Server Family has to offer. Additionally, we can help maintain that system either on site or remotely to help save time and money, whichever you prefer. 

Here's just some of the New Windows 2000 - 2003 Features:

• Active Directory - A scalable centralized directory service that simplifies administration and makes it easier for users to find resources. Built from the ground up with Internet-standard technologies.
• SharedPoint - A collaborative central point for Announcements, projects, surveys, shared documents, help desk, discussions, archives, presentations and faxes. All over web based Intranet.
• Shadow Copy - Allows users the ability to recall previous file versions without calling the IT department to perform a restore from a backup, very nice...
• Certificate Services - Deploy your own PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). Implement standards-based technologies such as smart card logon capabilities, client authentication through SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security), secure e-mail, digital signatures, and secure connectivity using Internet Protocol Security.
• Disk quota support - Monitor and limit the amount of space available to users, more efficient use of company resources. Defines responses to users that approach or exceed your specified thresholds.
• Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) - Works with DNS (Domain Name Service) and Active Directory Service to provide up-to-date IP addressing which can be replicated among all Domain Controllers in a truly multi-master environment.
• Encrypting File System (EFS) - A new level of protection for your data. EFS runs as an integrated system service, making it easy to manage, difficult to attack, and transparent to the user.
• Group Policy Object (GPO) - Policies can now be defined at the site level, domain level, OU and child OU levels through Active Directory. Policy based management simplifies such tasks as operating system updates, application installations, user profiles, and desktop-system lock down. 
• Internet Authentication Service (IAS) - Provides a central point for managing authentication, authorization, accounting, and auditing of dial-in or VPN (Virtual Private Network) users. 
• Internet Information Service (IIS) - Supports an unlimited number of Intranet, Extranet and Internet web-based applications. Includes ASP (Active Server Pages) and other features.
• Internet Security (IPSEC) - The new standard for secure communication over TCP/IP. Supports powerful filtering capabilities, authentication types, and encryption methods.
• Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) - A more secure version of Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP). Used for tunneling, address assigning, and authentication.
• Network Address Translation (NAT) - Hides internally managed IP addresses from external networks by translating private internal addresses to public external addresses, reducing IP registration costs. Also by hiding the internal network structure this reduces the risk of attacks against internal systems.
• Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) - 2000 combines these services into a single integrated system that manages remote users, and provides routing  (IP, IPX, and AppleTalk) capabilities. Function as a VPN server, a gateway server, or a branch office router.
• Terminal Services - Can provide users with the ability to access applications over the TS server or provide administrators with the ability to remotely administer their networks from virtually any machine or location.
• Roaming profiles - Thanks to the suite of IntelleMirror technologies you can now take your profile and programs with you, from anywhere you logon. You are no longer limited by boundaries and geography.
• Kerberos - Authorization, Authentication and Ticket Granting Ticket Services. Providing greater security and more efficient SSO (Single Sign On) capabilities while significantly reducing the threat from modalities. Microsoft V5 has brought this protocol to a whole new level. Note: When in mixed mode Windows 2000 still provides support for NTLM.

There are many many more benefits and features to Windows AD all which add up to more capabilities combined with simplified administration equaling lower  TCO (Total Cost of Ownership.)
