Windows Server 2003 R2 Update Released
Improvements touted by Microsoft include better identity and access management, and more UNIX interoperability.
With the official release date set for later this year, the Redmond-based software company has placed an update to the operating system online for download.
Active Directory Federation Services will enhance existing access controls and identity management for enterprises. Improvements to storage area network provisioning, setup, and management have been made.
For mixed shops with UNIX machines on-site, the update includes support for Network File System (NFS) services. Those familiar with Windows Services for Unix 3.5 will find those utilities included here.
Windows Server 2003 R2 will be a precursor to the much-hyped Longhorn 64-bit operating system, due in 18 months.
Systems running Windows Server 2003 will have to apply Service Pack 1 (SP1) first before they can install the R2 update.
