The Windows Server 2008 Certifications and their exams are as follows:

MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Configuration -- 70-640

MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration -- 70-642

MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Infrastructure Configuration -- 70-643

MCITP: Server Administrator                -- 70-640, 70-642, and 70-646

MCITP: Enterprise Administrator -- 70-640, 70-642, 70-643, 70-647, and one of (70-620, 70-624, or 70-680)

As you know, I like to combine the “skills being measured” section of the Preparation Guides in order to lead me (and you) to information that may be contained in study guides for exams other than the one you are currently studying for, especially the upgrade exams. This helps expand the “May include but is not limited to” sections, and hopefully reduces the not-included portions.

The “skills measured” section has greatly changed in the Windows Server 2008 exam series. This page was greatly changed in September 2011.
