As Site Manager of SearchWin2000.com, one of my tasks is to make sure our users are aware of all the great things we have to offer. And from the looks of things, most of you already are. You love our white papers, you watch our webcasts, and you read our news and updates religiously. But have you taken full advantage of what the rest of our site has to offer? Well, if you haven't visited our Desktop Deployment Info Center lately, then you certainly haven't. Take a look for yourself; you may be missing out on some great content.
The Desktop Deployment Info Center offers your typical favorites -- news, webcasts, white papers and useful links. But it also gives you something else, something you won't find anywhere else on the Web -- a remarkable amount of content focused specifically on Windows desktop deployment. No more searching the Web for a needle in a haystack, no more scouring extensive forums for hours. Find chapter downloads, security information and backup and recovery links -- all specific to desktop management. From product evaluation to deployment and maintenance, we have the most comprehensive desktop informati
on on the Internet.
Think of the Desktop Deployment Info Center as your online community, a place where you can work with others to find the tools, training, and resources you need. It taps the editorial and technical resources of SearchWin2000.com and Microsoft to provide useful content for people deploying Windows on any scale. Check it out today and see for yourself. You'll be amazed by what it can do for you -- you may never have to surf the Net again!

Admin restrictions help keep Active Directory safe
Service administrators may be in charge of keeping Active Directory safe, but they can also be an organization's greatest liability. |

Microsoft to launch SUS 2.0 beta in January
Customer demand for SUS is so strong that Microsoft delayed testing of a new version of the Windows utility to make it a formal beta program. A Microsoft executive says SUS 2.0 will sport four major improvements over the current version. |

Gates is a tough act to follow
What Jerry Lewis is to the Labor Day Telethon, Bill Gates is to Comdex. If ever a day comes when Gates opts out of headlining the annual Las Vegas event, the IT community will be the lesser for it. This year, Microsoft's chief software architect did a round of media interviews before and during Comdex, and -- no surprise here -- Windows security was the topic du jour. |

| Tip of the Week: |
| Many behaviors in Windows can be restricted or modified through the use of administrative policies, resulting in an error message to the user: "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." However, this same message can be generated under conditions that have nothing to do with administrative restrictions. In fact, this
notice may be the result of a damaged registry key. |
