		In computing, a directory, catalog, or folder, is an entity in a file system which contains a group of files and other directories.
		The word directory is also used in computing and telephony with a different sense: a central repository of information related to management of a computer or a network of computers.
		The directory, as opposed to a database, is heavily optimized for reading, with the assumption that data updates are very rare compared to data reads.

	Directory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		If you imagine the computer's file system as a file cabinet, high–level directories may be represented by the drawers, while lower–level subdirectories may be represented as file folders within the drawers.
		Historically, and even on some modern embedded devices, the filesystems either have no support for directories at all or only have a flat directory structure, meaning subdirectories are not allowed; there is only a group of top–level directories each containing files.
		The directory, as opposed to a conventional database, is heavily optimized for reading, with the assumption that data updates are very rare compared to data reads.

	Active Directory Overview (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Because a directory service supplies these fundamental network operating system functions, it must be tightly coupled with the management and security mechanisms of the operating system to ensure the integrity and privacy of the network.
		Active Directory is an essential and inseparable part of the Windows 2000 network architecture that improves on the domain architecture of the Windows NT 4.0 operating system to provide a directory service designed for distributed networking environments.
		Because these directory services are targeted narrowly to the needs of the application or device and often lack standards-based interfaces, most companies have found that they are responsible for many different directories that can’t be managed centrally or interoperate easily with each other.

		In Active Directory, we could create an OU for a division in a sales domain, letting divisional administrators manage their users, while a single domain controller with a global directory in each office serviced all the users as well.
		Given that most conversions from Windows NT domains to Active Directory will involve moving or merging users from domain to domain while at least temporarily allowing them access to resources that have not yet been migrated, giving new user accounts--with new SIDs--access to the old resources is a critical part of the process.
		When a user accesses a resource, such as a shared directory, the old domain SID is sent to the resources server, along with the user's current SID and the SIDs for the groups to which the member belongs.

	The Old New Thing : Computing the size of a directory is more than just adding file sizes
		One might think that computing the size of a directory would be a simple matter of adding up the sizes of all the files in it.
		There are many things that make computing the size of a directory difficult, some of which even throw into doubt the even existence of the concept "size of a directory".
		If you're computing the size in preparation for copying, then you probably want the logical size, but if you're computing to see how much disk space would be freed up by deleting it, then you probably want physical size.
