Domain

A group of computers that share a common directory database (Active Directory). The Active Directory (also called the Windows NT Directory Service, or NTDS, before Windows 2000) contains the User Accounts and security information for the resources in that domain. Each person who uses computers within a domain receives their own unique account, or user name. Users can assign resources to User Accounts within the domain.
