To stay informed of the progress made by each team, co-chair Rothgarn asked that regular updates be posted on the Web. On behalf of the Windows 2000 TIF subgroup, Jeremy Smith distributed the final draft of the group's recommendations. TIF members were asked to work with the ATP team to ensure the needs of campus departments are identified and met as appropriate. Consistent login is critical to wide adoption of the campus root server. The ATP must carefully study the ramifications of Exchange 2000 on Active Directory.
Exchange is already widely used on campus.
The campus will begin to migrate to Exchange 2000 and Active Directory is an essential requirement for using Exchange 2000. In addition to discussing these recommendations, TIF members noted that, given the complexity of the Windows 2000 operating system, it is very important to have some form of consistent training available to campus departments. Smith solicited feedback from the TIF and indicated the document would be made available for review by campus members. Enterprise Directory Hebert Diaz-Flores reported on the TIF's involvement in this Advanced Technology Project. The group plans to serve as a liaison between the TIF and the project team, carrying forward concerns, comments, and suggestions.
