IT SURVIVAL KIT
Regain service-account access to mailboxes
Exchange 5.5, by default, allows the administrator to access user mailboxes to read or delete e-mails freely via the service account admin privilege. Exchange administrators sometimes take this out-of-the-box behavior for granted, and then they're surprised to find that they can no longer do this when they upgrade from 5.5 to 2000. Here you'll learn a few methods for getting access.

ASK PAUL HINSBERG
When are multiple domains better than one?
Dear Paul:
When, if ever, should one consider multiple domains for the enterprise? Currently, we have all users in a single domain. Our European sites are requesting a domain for each country. Our primary application program is J.D. Edwards and we are using Lotus Notes. With Win2000, I don't see much advantage, if any, to going to multiple domains. Can you please comment?

DNS
The domain name system (DNS) is the way that Internet domain names are located and translated into Internet Protocol addresses. DNS is a critical component in Win2k -- learn it or you'll regret it!


THE MISSING LINK
Apple v. Apple again

Forget a "Ticket to Ride" -- Apple Computer is getting a ticket to court. In a tangled tale of two Apples, the computer company has run afoul of Apple Corps Ltd., the music company the Beatles begot in 1968, in order to, as John Lennon once said, "play businessman." At the core of the matter is Apple Computer's fruitful iTunes music download business. The two companies settled a scrap over the name "Apple" years ago, but one of the conditions was that the computer company stay out of the music business. With iTunes and iPod digital music players, the Beatles machine just can't let it be, and a court will have to figure out what to do.
