Page 48: Correction To Group Policy And Windows NT 4 Client Computers

On page 48, in the first paragraph,

Change:
"If Active Directory manages the user account, the user receives the User Configuration portion of a GPO no matter which operating system is installed on the client computer. This means that Windows NT 4 clients receive the User Configuration portion of a GPO when an Active Directory account logs on, and that Windows 2000 clients receive system policy when accounts managed by Windows NT 4 domain controllers log on."

To:
"If Active Directory manages the user account, Group Policy is being applied to client computers running Windows 2000 Professional, and Windows NT 4-style system policy is being applied to client computers running Windows NT4.0. Windows NT 4.0 does not use Active Directory. Because computers running Windows NT 4.0 do not have local Group Policy objects, Group Policy does not apply.

Page 50: "Deploy.cab" Should Be "Support.cab"

On page 50, under Exercise 3, in step 4, "Deploy.cab" should be "Support.cab".

Page 197: Incorrect CA Name In Figure 5.9

Page 383: Incorrect Information About Kerberos And L2TP/IPSec

To:

Page 463: Local-host Should Be Localhost

On page 463, in the Caution paragraph,

Change:
