Healthy working practice on computers

Computers, as business machines, provide you with a highly powerful tool to perform various activities expeditiously and accurately. But this environment also demands you to take good care of the hardware for continued availability of the system. It also requires you to implement certain security measures to protect yourself. The following list gives you various tips for you to note and follow:

Taking care of computers

You may follow the under mentioned tips for longer life of computers and smooth functioning

Ø Keep the systems covered when not in use. The system includes the monitor, CPU, keyboard, mouse and Printers

Ø Before switching on the system, please ensure that

The UPS is switched on

No floppy is available in the floppy drive

Ø If you cannot switch the system on properly check whether the power cables are connected properly and if there are some loose ends, correct them

Ø When you turn the system on and when the windows logon screen appears, you have to type the username and password allotted to you by the system administrator, correctly for successful logon

Ø Before switching the system off, Shut down windows

Ø If you are working in Windows 2000 environment and when you leave the system temporarily, you can lock the desktop using the Windows security option

Taking care of passwords

Passwords are like keys to locks and they should be taken care of properly. Here are a few tips

ü When the system starts and you enter a windows user account and password, this is to connect to the Server and establish network connectivity

ü On logging on to windows, you may run applications like Meghdoot Point of Sale. Here also you should select a user account and type a password. This password is to permit you to run the application. Please note the difference between the two authentications and their purpose

ü The System administrator sets the initial password. Immediately on logging on, you should set your own password. You can reset Windows password as well as Application password for your user accounts

ü While setting passwords remember the following guidelines

o Use a mixture of alphabetic and number keys for the passwords

o Do not relate the passwords to your name, that of your relative or any other associations

o Change the passwords previously set, at least once in two months

o Do not reveal the password to any one else, even in case of emergency

ü Do not attempt to imagine the password of any other user and try to logon

ü The Supervisors should never part with their passwords for the sake of convenience as this has dangerous consequences.

Joining two domains ( Servers)

Domains by default are unable to communicate with other domains, which means somewhere in domain DOP1 cannot access any resource that is part of domain DOP2. Before a trust relationship is configured

(A) an administrator in DOP1 cannot give permission to any user of domain DOP2 for files or printers

(B) a user of domain DOP2 cannot sit at a workstation that is part of domain DOP1 and login

After a trust relationship is defined, say DOP1 trusts DOP2 the following happens

(A)users of domain DOP2 can sit at a workstation that is part of domain DOP1 and login to their own domain DOP2 (it will be displayed in the domain dropdown box)

(B)an administrator of domain DOP1 can grant permission to any user of domain DOP2 to file and print resources

(C)users of domain DOP2 are included in the Everyone group of domain DOP1

In the example above DOP1 is the trusting domain, and DOP2 is the trusted domain. Also the above is a one-way trust relationship, i.e. while domain DOP2 users can use domain DOP1 resources, users of domain DOP1 cannot use domain DOP2 resources. A two-way relationship would allow each domain to access resources of the other (if given permission).

The basics of a trust relationship is to first configure domain DOP2 to allow domain DOP1 to trust it, and then configure domain DOP1 to trust domain DOP2:

(1)Log onto domain DOP2 as Administrator

(2)Start Active Directory Domains & Trusts for Domains (Start - Programs - Administrative Tools)

(3)Select "the properties" of the DOP2 domain then "Trust Tab"

(4)Click the Add button to " the domains that trust this domain" box

(5)Enter the name of the domain you want to be able to trust you, i.e. domain DOP1

(6)You can type a password in the Initial Password and Confirm Password, however this is only used when the trust relationship is started. You can leave it blank Click OK to complete the addition

(7)Close the Trust Relationship dialog box

(8)Log off of domain DOP2 and login onto domain DOP1 as Administrator

(9)start Active Directory Domains & Trusts for Domains (Start - Programs - Administrative Tools)

(10)Select "the properties" of the DOP1 domain then "Trust" tab

(11)Click the Add button to " the domains trusted by this domain" box

(12)Enter the name of domain DOP2 and the password if one was configured in step 6

(13)Click OK and close.

(14)Domain DOP1 nowPublish Post trusts domain DOP2
