DNS Step-by-Step Guide

This document can help you implement Domain Name System (DNS) on Microsoft® Windows Server™ 2003 on a small network. DNS is the main way that Windows Server 2003 translates computer names to network addresses. An Active Directory®-based domain controller also can act as a DNS server that registers the names and addresses of computers in the domain and then provides the network address of a member computer when queried with the computer's name.
This guide explains how to set up DNS on a simple network consisting of a single domain.

Download details: ASP.NET 2.0 Hosting Deployment Guide

The ASP.NET 2.0 Deployment Guide is a reference for web hosters who are interested in adding ASP.NET 2.0 to their existing Windows hosting service. Besides improving developer productivity, ASP.NET 2.0 also provides benefits for hosted environments, including support for shutting down inactive applications and locking down rogue applications. Enhanced health monitoring configuration can be used to set thresholds and severity levels for monitoring the health of ASP.NET.

Microsoft CLR Overview

The .NET Framework from Microsoft provides services to application developers that are necessary to quickly create scalable solutions that meet stringent requirements for security, manageability and productivity. This whitepaper introduces the guiding principles and thoughts behind the .NET Framework, the core features of the Common Language Runtime and its supporting Framework Base Class Libraries and how it is evolving in the next major version.

The Microsoft Common Language Runtime (CLR) and the .NET Framework class libraries – collectively called the .NET Framework – were designed to enable developers to easily create scalable, secure, interoperable and manageable applications that can also leverage existing investments in other technologies and platforms. The .NET infrastructure works with non-Microsoft technologies through its built-in support for creating and consuming Web services, and it works with existing Microsoft technologies by providing native integration with COM components. These features help to extract further value from an organization’s existing investments in prior technologies and ensure interoperability with other platforms.

Since the earliest days of software development, organizations have sought to build applications quickly and with higher quality – that is fewer bugs. Applications should also interoperate with different environments and technologies and should be built with widely-accepted languages that are easy to learn and maintain, simultaneously boosting productivity. Many approaches have appeared to try to improve the development process, but often these efforts have been focused on the analysis and design phase. It is not until more recently that the underlying architecture of the development platform itself has achieved a prominent role in laying the groundwork for building enterprise applications.

Whether an enterprise is concerned with interoperability with Web services or COM applications, building solutions more quickly and with fewer bugs, or using a common programming model across application types and languages, the .NET Framework provides organizations the tools to meet all these goals and more.
