| | Vista Domain connectivity VERY flakey After running Vista on a few machines in my network, I have come to realize that Vista seems to (over)err on the side of security. DFS shares, printer shares, authentication, etc. all the things that run quite efficiently with Windows XP SP2 and 2003 R2 machines have occasional issues under Vista. Vista appears to address the mobile laptop security issue very well; however domain connectivity seems to suffer. Hopefully this will be corrected in SP1; at the present time I cannot recommend Vista be deployed in a domain environment without extensive testing and possible disabling of security features in Vista. My Vista machines are part of a Windows 2003 R2 native AD domain, and use best practices as outlined in "Windows 2003 Security Guide, "Windows XP Security Guide," and Threats and Countermeasures Guide" to secure the machines via GPOs. -- Edward Ray CCIE Security, CISSP, GCIA Gold, GCIH Gold, MCSE+Security, PE |
