Win2k's built-in disaster-recovery tools can improve your network's health—and your peace of mind
In Windows 2000, Microsoft introduces an enormous number of long-overdue features and capabilities. However, regardless of the new benefits available to administrators and users, the introduction of a new OS version inevitably presents at least one major disadvantage: It renders obsolete many of the skills, techniques, and tools that network administrators have developed for day-to-day OS maintenance.

Hi, I've installed the XP recovery console. I was not able to logon to Administrator at the recovery console. It complained about the invalid password. But, when I logon to XP as Administrator I got no problem at all. Is there someone can help?

How could you add the 3rd-party drivers (e.g. SCSI) to the system HD to avoid pressing F6 every time using diskettes? For most Win2k servers, this is absolutely required and there is no info for doing that.

I successfully set up my 450MHz Pentium II system in a Windows 2000 and Windows 95 dual-boot configuration. Sean Daily's "Multibooting Windows 2000 Systems" (Summer 2000) and "Mastering Multibooting Madness" (July 1999) proved very helpful. I'd never multibooted a system before, nor had I installed Win2K. The articles gave me the foundation I needed to pull off the feat. "Mastering Multibooting Madness" includes a technique to get Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 98 to share the same swap file. I use the same technique on my Win2K and Win98 system, and so far, so good.
