Brian Svidergol writes about Microsoft infrastructure and identity administration. He co-wrote the fourth edition of Active Directory Cookbook with Robbie Allen for O’Reilly Media. The book organizes hundreds of practical recipes for forests, domains, trusts, directory objects, Group Policy, DNS, replication, and PowerShell automation. Its task-based structure is intended for administrators who need both a direct procedure and enough explanation to adapt it to another environment. The result connects day-to-day operational tasks with the wider relationships among directory services, policy, authentication, and network structure.
