1 Overview of Windows Services

Windows services encompass a primary domain

controller, SMB file and print services, Windows domain

browsing, name resolution, and VPN.

Mac OS X Server can provide a variety of services to users of Microsoft Windows 95, 98,

ME (Millennium Edition), XP, NT 4.0, and 2000.

• File service allows Windows clients to connect to the server using Server Message

Block (SMB) protocol on a TCP/IP network.

• Print service uses SMB to allow Windows clients to print to PostScript printers on the

network.

• Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) allows Windows clients to perform

name/address resolution across multiple subnets.

• Domain browsing allows Windows clients to browse for available servers across

subnets.

• Virtual private network (VPN) allows Windows clients to securely connect to

Mac OS X Server while away from the local network.

• Primary domain controller (PDC) offers:

• Login to the PDC from Windows NT 4.x, Windows 2000, and Windows XP

workstations

• Users changing their passwords during login

• Login using the same user account on Mac OS X and Windows computers

• Roaming user profiles stored on a Mac OS X Server computer

• Network home directories located on a Mac OS X Server computer

• User-level security for Windows 95, 98, and ME clients

By providing these services, Mac OS X Server can replace Windows NT servers in small

workgroups. Settings for Windows services are grouped In Workgroup Manager and

Server Admin, to make them easy to find. These settings are also designed to be

familiar to experienced Windows administrators.
