Episode 108: Active Directory — Group Policy, Scripts, Domains

This episode introduces Active Directory (AD), Microsoft’s central system for managing users, computers, and security in domain-based environments. We explain how AD organizes resources into domains, trees, and forests, and how Group Policy Objects (GPOs) are used to enforce settings across multiple systems automatically. You'll learn about domain controllers and how they authenticate logins and apply access rights based on security groups.We also cover login scripts and startup policies—automated tasks that run when a user signs in, commonly used for mapping drives, setting environment variables, or launching applications. Understanding these elements is crucial for answering exam questions that involve centralized user management and system configuration in enterprise environments.
