Exam Highlights | MCSA/MCSE Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-284): Implementing and Managing MicrosoftВ® Exchange Server 2003 (Pro-Certification)

Before taking the exam, review the key points and terms that are presented in this chapter. Return to the lessons for additional practice.

Key Points

Site Connectors are used to connect routing groups when there is reliable bandwidth. X.400 connectors are used to connect routing groups when bandwidth is unreliable.
The Migration Wizard cannot migrate existing account information. You must use the Active Directory Migration Tool to retain existing settings.
To configure an X.400 connector, you must first create an X.400 transport stack.
Synchronizing with Lotus Notes and Novell GroupWise is a two-part process. Configuring the Connector for Lotus Notes or the Connector for Novell GroupWise synchronizes account and message data, but you must also configure a Calendar Connector in order to synchronize calendar data.

Key Terms

security identifier (SID) A SID is an attribute of a user account that uniquely identifies it in a Windows domain. A SID is unique and is used only once, so if you delete and recreate an account with all the same data, the operating system sees them as two different accounts. Because SIDs are unique, if you migrate a user account using the Migration Wizard and a new account is created in the target domain, you will have to recreate all the security settings manually.

X.400 A standards-based messaging system that is most commonly used outside of the United States. Exchange Server 2003 is X.400-compliant and can communicate with any X.400-compliant messaging system.

access control list (ACL) ACLs define the security settings that are attached to an object in Active Directory. Every object has an ACL, which is used to determine what objects have permissions to the object and what level of permissions they have. The Migration Wizard is not able to migrate ACL settings.

source domain and target domain When you use either the Active Directory Migration Tool or the Migration Wizard, you define a source domain that contains the accounts and mailboxes you are migrating and a target domain that is the destination for the migration.
