Instructions to setup domain controller
- by Robert Koritnik
Where could I get best step by step instructions (with some simple explanations) how to setup domain controller on Windows Server 2008 R2 Server Core?
I don't know what do I need? Do I need DNS as well and AD and so on and so forth. I don't know enough about these things, but I need to set them up to prepare development environment. I would also like to know how to configure firewall on DC machine, to make it visible on other machines because I've setup DC somehow but I can't connect to it...
This is my HW config:
Linksys internet router with DHCP
my dev machine is Windows 7
my DC machine is a VM in my dev machine
my dev machine has a network adapter to linksys and a virtual adapter to DC
DC machine has two network adapters: one to linksys (to be inetrnet connected) and one to host (my dev Win7 machine)
