Microsoft Windows File Server has come a long way from its initial debut in the early 1990’s.   In the initial release a Windows File Server used NetBios with NetBeui over Novell’s IPX/SPX protocols as it’s transport mechanism over network.  File Server access was restricted to the local area network.   In 1993, the internet and TCP/IP protocols were introduced allowing for the possibility of remote access to Window File Server Shares.    Microsoft quickly embraced these protocols giving it a jump over the more popular Novell file server at that time.

The Windows File Server role allows customers to share files using attached storage and integrates seamlessly with Active Directory with NTFS permissions.   Files are served to end users over SMB file shares that can be mapped as drives or accessed by UNC paths.   Mapped drives can be easily deployed to users as they login to their domain joined Windows PC’s through login scripts or group policy rules.
