Windows 2000 Server
The Microsoft Windows 2000 Server builds on the strengths of Microsoft Windows NT technology, integrating a standards-based directory, Web, application, communications, file, and print services with high reliability, efficient management, and support for the latest advances in networking hardware to provide the best foundation for integrating your business with the Internet.

Features of
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server Not on Windows NT
Windows 2000 Server provides a wide array of powerful new features and functionality not available on Windows NT servers. Highlights include:

• Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, and Windows 2000 Datacenter Server are the foundation for all the .NET application servers
• Windows 2000 Server and Windows .NET Server 2003 build upon the core stability of the Windows NT operating system that was first released in 1993, and is used in hundreds of millions of application worldwide.
• Greatly reduced management and deployment costs as a result of the ability to run desktop computers, laptops and servers with the same core operating system.
• Management and security tools to reduce the cost and improve the reliability of Windows 2000 or Windows XP desktop computers by using centralized user policies, rights and configurations. Keeping unauthorized users from installing programs on their laptop or workstation, or even restricting them from Internet access completely for users that have no need for such tools, can be a huge productivity gain for both your users and your IT support staff.
• Compared to previous generations of Windows, such as Windows 98 or Windows NT, Windows 2000 Server is a very stable and robust platform to host applications.
• An integrated security and password model that builds upon a uniform directory structure allows seamless and secure access for local users, mobile or remote users, telecommuters, and web users.
• Greatly enhanced server and workstation management tools that ease the burden of supporting servers and workstations, allowing IT resources to improve the service level and responsiveness to users.
• Broad hardware and software compatibility as a result of being the "Standard" operating system.

Excellent support for remote access users, telecommuters, and virtual users, and especially for users that are sometimes at the office but need the same level of productivity when they are mobile. Features such as offline server folders allow users transparent access to data even when they are not connected.

• Fault tolerance features, including disk mirroring, distributed file system, and cluster configurations, maximize server uptime and user availability
