Settings configured in the Policies folder are applied to users or computers and can’t be overridden by users. Settings in the Preferences folder are applied to users or computers but are just that:

object names in one domain are updated in references to these objects in other domains. For example, if a user account in Domain A is a member of a group in Domain B and the user account name is changed, the infrastructure master in Domain A is responsible for replicating the change to Domain B. By default, the first domain controller in each domain is the infrastructure master for that domain. • Domain naming master —This domain controller manages adding, removing, and renaming domains in the

conglomerates with diverse business units might want to operate as separate forests. With this structure, domains in different forests can still share information through trust relationships, but changes to the schema—perhaps from installing an Active Directory–integrated application, such as Microsoft Exchange—don’t affect the schema of domains in a different forest. • Forestwide administrative accounts—Each forest has two groups defined with unique rights to perform operations that can affect

These applications ensure that client computers always try to access data in the same site before attempting to use the WAN link. Sites are created by using Active Directory Sites and Services. A site is linked to an IP subnet that
