Utilizing 2003 R2 improvementsBesides updating the schema to R2, what else is needed to use the functional
improvements like DFS and Printing? Are 2003R2 DC's required? All, one, or just the ones providing the improvements? What benefit would I get from updating the schema and just having a R2 member sever? -- /kj Inline...

Just to clarify, If I update the schema then I could use updated adm files to distribute printer connections through GPO's? -- Show quoteHide quote/kj "Jorge de Almeida Pinto [MVP]" <SubstituteThisWithMyFullNameSeparatedByD***@gmail.com> wrote in message news:u17nDdKRGHA.3052@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... > only the servers that need/use the new features must be R2 > > R2 schema update is needed to be able to use DFS-R and to distribute > printer connections through GPOs > > -- > > Cheers, > (HOPEFULLY THIS INFORMATION HELPS YOU!) > > # Jorge de Almeida Pinto # MVP Windows Server - Directory Services > > BLOG --> http://blogs.dirteam.com/blogs/jorge/default.aspx > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > * This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties and confers no > rights! > * Always test before implementing! > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > "kj" <k*@nowhere.com> wrote in message > news:eOu%23LBHRGHA.2088@TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... >> Besides updating the schema to R2, what else is needed to use the >> functional improvements like DFS and Printing? >> >> Are 2003R2 DC's required?

to be able to distribute printer connections to clients you need the PMC. You can configure the printer connection distribution from within the PMC or from with a GPO. Don't forget the "you need the PMC"!. you can compare it with the exchange system manager. If you want to manage a user with a mailbox you need the exchange system manager. If you don't have the exchange system manager you can only manage the user but not the mailbox, because mailbox tabs are not available. Because the mailbox tabs are not available does not mean the mailbox is not there! Concerning the distribution of printer connections, the idea is the same! It is the PMC that adds an additional node to a GPO, not the ADM files. -- Show quoteHide quoteCheers, (HOPEFULLY THIS INFORMATION HELPS YOU!) # Jorge de Almeida Pinto # MVP Windows Server - Directory Services BLOG --> http://blogs.dirteam.com/blogs/jorge/default.aspx ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- * This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties and confers no rights! * Always test before implementing! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- "kj" <k*@nowhere.com> wrote in message news:Oe4n7FMRGHA.2156@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... > Thanks Jorge, > > Just to clarify, > > If I update the schema then I could use updated adm files to distribute > printer connections through GPO's? > > -- > /kj > "Jorge de Almeida Pinto [MVP]" > <SubstituteThisWithMyFullNameSeparatedByD***@gmail.com> wrote in message > news:u17nDdKRGHA.3052@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... >> only the servers that need/use the new features must be R2 >> >> R2 schema update is needed to be able to use DFS-R and to distribute >> printer connections through GPOs >> >> -- >> >> Cheers, >> (HOPEFULLY THIS INFORMATION HELPS YOU!) >> >> # Jorge de Almeida Pinto # MVP Windows Server - Directory Services >> >> BLOG --> http://blogs.dirteam.com/blogs/jorge/default.aspx >> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- >> * This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties and confers no >> rights! >> * Always test before implementing! >> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- >> >> >> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- >> "kj" <k*@nowhere.com> wrote in message >> news:eOu%23LBHRGHA.2088@TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... >>> Besides updating the schema to R2, what else is needed to use the >>> functional improvements like DFS and Printing? >>> >>> Are 2003R2 DC's required?
