Schema master - responsible for having a single copy of the schema shared by all domains in the forest.
Domain naming master - ensures that unique domain names are used through the forest.
What are the the three Domain level FSMO roles?
Relative identifier (RID) master - used to provide RID pools to domain controllers which in turn are used when creating new security principals.
Primary domain controller (PDC) emulator - responsible for time synchronization and password replication.
Infrastructure master - responsible for the consistency of references to objects between domains within a forest.
What doe the Schema master do?

What is an Active Directory forest?
A forest is a collestion of AD Domains that share a common schema and are bound by an automatically created two-way trust relationship.
What is an AD Domain?
A domain is a logical unit that contains users, groups, computers and other objects..
What group can manage multiple domains in a forest?
Enterprise Admins
What is a Tree?
A collection AD DS domains that share a common root domain and have a contigous namespace.
What is the AD DS schema?
A collection of objects types and their properties (aka attributes), that define what sort of objects you can create and manage within your AD DS forest.
What is an OU?
A container within a domain that contains users, groups, computers and other OU.
What is a container?
A collection of objects or collections grouped together. Cannot be linked to GPOs.
What is a site?
A logical representation of a physical location within your organisation.
What site is created when you install AD DS and create a forest?
Default-First-Site-Name
Why should you define subnets?
It makes it possible for the AD DS forest to determine the physical location of a computer in relation to services offered in the forest.
What are the three partitions in a domain?
