Explanation:
Or something like that - surely this is simply explaining what Active Directory is (the capital Z is simply an error and can mislead into thinking it is some sort of proper name).



- Active Directory is Microsoft's trademarked directory service, an integral part of the Windows 2000 architecture. Like other directory services, such as Novell Directory Services (NDS), Active Directory is a centralized and standardized system that automates network management of user data, security, and distributed resources, and enables interoperation with other directories. Active Directory is designed especially for distributed networking environments.
