How can I install specific applications from the Windows .NET Server (Win.NET Server) and Windows 2000 Administration Tools pack?

A. Microsoft supplies the Win.NET Server and Win2K Administration Tools pack as one Windows Installer file (i.e., adminpak.msi). Executing the Windows Installer file installs the whole toolset to your machine. To install individual tools, perform the following steps:

  1. Open the command prompt by going to Start, Run and typing cmd.exe
  2. Navigate to the folder that contains adminpak.msi.
  3. Type msiexec /i adminpak.msi ADDLOCAL=<Short code for the tool> /qb For example, type msiexec /i adminpak.msi ADDLOCAL=FeADTools /qb for the Active Directory (AD) tools.
  4. Close the command-prompt session.

The full list of short codes is

Abbreviation Tool
FeADTools Active directory Tools
FeCERTConsole Certification Authority
FeClusterConsole Cluster Administrator
FeCMAKConsole Connection Manager Administration Kit
FeDHCPConsole DHCP
FeDFSConsole Distributed File System
FeDNSConsole DNS
FeIASConsole Internet Authentication Service
FeIISConsole Internet Services Manager
FeACSConsole QoS Admission Control
FeRSConsole Remote Storage

May 2013 - The NameTranslate object is useful when you need to translate Active Directory object names between different formats, but it's awkward to use from PowerShell. Here's a PowerShell script that eliminates the awkwardness.
