This article explains how to install
admin pack for Windows 7 computer and start using. Even if you don’t have high
end Windows 2008 servers but to manage small network from your windows 7
computer these admin pack tools help lot. Administration pack tools do not come
with Windows 7. You have to download it from Microsoft site and install.
This administration tools pack
allows doing most of the Windows 2003, Windows 2008 and Windows 2008 R2 server
tasks from your Windows 7 computer.
Remote Desktop manager is one of the
admin pack tool to manage multiple remote desktop connections in one screen and
it allows saving user name password for each connection profile. So next time
you do not need to type user name and password to connect specific computer or
server. Installing Admin or administrators pack on windows 7 is slightly
different than earlier versions of Windows.
Here
are the steps to install Admin pack for Windows 7
You can install the Administration
Tools pack on a computer that is running the Professional, Enterprise, or
Ultimate editions of Windows 7.
2)
Start the installation. Yes for Install update.
3)
Once successfully installed, next screen shows how to install each feature of
admin pack tool. Without doing following steps you can’t find any of the
administration tools in program files or control panel. Close the screen and go
to control panel.
4) Go
to Programs and features. Select Turn Windows features on or off then select
Remote Server Administration Tools as shown below.
5)
Depends on the requirement of network you can select each option. As I
mentioned earlier, you can manage Windows 2003,2008 and 2008 R2 Servers from
Windows 7 client computer by this administration tools pack. You must be
in administrator group or administration tasks privilege should have been given
to perform some of server tasks. In this example I select Remote Desktop
Services Tools which help to manage multiple remote desktop connections in
Windows 7 computer.
Press OK.
6) So
newly added administrations pack tool feature can be found under Administrative
Tools in Windows 7.
The other administrative pack tools
which you select also will be listed under Administrative Tools.
Even you can install Server Manager
in Windows 7 and do the same all server tasks in Windows 2003,2008 and 2008 R2
from Windows 7 client.
