Under 'Changing group scope' header

The second bullet point under the 'Changing group scope' header states
that a global group can be changed to a universal group providing no
member has global scope. This is incorrect. A universal group can contain
global groups, so it is possible to change a global group to a universal
group when one of the members is a global group.

Note from the Author or Editor:
A universal group can contain global groups, so it is possible to change a global group to a universal group when one of the members is a global group.

5th paragraph

"Reserved addresses cannot be part of an excluded IP address range."

"http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/library/ab8ae112-34c5-49b5-9795-155d89035f0d1033.mspx?
mfr=true"

"You can create reservations using any IP address in the scope's address range, even if the IP address is
also within an exclusion range. Because of this design, when the 80/20 rule is implemented and all
addresses in the scope are excluded (80% at one server, 20% at the other), reservations still function
properly."
