Page 154: Changes Regarding Transitive Trusts
On page 154, in the third paragraph, change the second sentence from:

&quot;Transitive trusts are always two-way.&quot;

To:

&quot;Transitive trusts are always two-way, and support pass-through authentication.&quot;

Page 154: Changes Regarding Transitive Trusts
On page 154, in the third paragraph, change all the text after the third line:

&quot;However, transitive trusts don't enter the picture...&quot; through to the end of the paragraph.

To:

&quot;Transitive trusts become available once a domain is upgraded to Active Directory. Despite some confusion over the matter, they do operate in mixed mode domains, but do not apply to remaining Windows NT domains in your company, or to clients connected to Windows NT BDC's. Explicit one-way trusts are also available between Active Directory based domains, but they must be manually established.&quot;

Page 154: Changes Regarding Transitive Trusts
On page 154, in the &quot;Real World: Whom Do You Trust?&quot; box, change all text after the first sentence, beginning with &quot;The question of transitive trusts arises in large multidomained enterprises...&quot;,

To:

&quot;Windows 2000 DC's automatically make use of transitive trusts when communicating with other Windows 2000 DC's even in mixed mode. The existing trusts remain in place for use by Windows NT BDC's until the domain is switched to native mode. Trusts that you add to or from Windows NT domains will be nontransitive trusts that you explicitly and deliberately set. This means that if you are creating a new Windows 2000 domain, you will have to manually create trusts with existing Windows NT domains.&quot;

Page 155: Incorrect Items In Table 7-1
On page 155, in Table 7-1, first row, change:

&quot;Windows 2000 Domain (same forest)&quot;

To:

&quot;Active Directory Domain (same forest)&quot;

Change:

&quot;Windows 2000 Domain (different forest)&quot;

To:

&quot;Active Directory Domain (different forest)&quot;

In the 3rd row, change:

&quot;Windows 2000 Domain&quot;

To:

&quot;Active Directory Domain&quot;

Change:

&quot;Two-way transitive trust only&quot;

To:

&quot;Two-way transitive trust&quot;

Page 162: Changes To Single-Master Domain Model Section
On page 162, in the second paragraph, third line, change the following sentence:

&quot;If the company has a centralized network structure, you might want to consider restructuring the domains into a single domain after you’ve upgraded the domain and switched to native mode.&quot;

To:

&quot;If the company has a centralized network structure, you might want to consider restructuring the domains into a single domain after you’ve upgraded the domains to Active Directory.&quot;

Page 162: Incorrect Statement About OU's
On page 162, in the third paragraph, change the third sentence from:

&quot;You can use OU's to create a detailed network structure without the necessity of dealing with trusts (although switching to native mode will eliminate most of the hassle of managing trust relationships).&quot;

To:

&quot;You can use OU's to create a detailed network structure without the necessity of dealing with trusts.&quot;

Page 163: Changes Regarding Moving Accounts Between Transitive Trusts
Page 163, first paragraph, seventh line down, change the following sentence from:

&quot;You should wait, however, until the network has been converted to Windows 2000 native mode before moving the accounts because transitive trusts make moving accounts between domains much easier, and this type of trust is available only in a native-mode domain.&quot;

To:

&quot;You should wait, however, until all relevant domains have been upgraded before moving the accounts because transitive trusts make moving accounts between domains much easier, and this type of trust is available only between Active Directory domains.&quot;

Page 163: Changes Regarding Domain Upgrades
Page 163, in the first paragraph of &quot;Multiple-Master Domain Model,&quot; change the following section from:

&quot;If you choose to consolidate the domains, you should first perform the domain upgrade just as if you were going to preserve the existing domain structure, and then perform the domain consolidation only after upgrading the network to native mode. After the domains are in native mode, all accounts can be moved into the single domain without the need to reassign permissions on the objects.&quot;

To:

&quot;If you choose to consolidate the domains, you should first perform the domain upgrade just as if you were going to preserve the existing domain structure, and then perform the domain consolidation. After the domains are upgraded, all accounts can be moved into the single domain without the need to reassign permissions on the objects.&quot;
