HI everyone,
(At this moment - I'm installing 2k8 R2 - FULL INSTALLATION for one of small non-profit school...)
just want a small favor;
I need your help with simple instruction how to setup in proper order for this only following -> DNS, DCHP and AD. (Right now all of the nodes - approx 40 of 'em - are connected to the router)
Which role should I set up first? Let me know soon as you can.
A huge thanks in advanced and looking forward to hear from you!
Jeff - a humble jr sys admin
how far have you got? , step 1 put in dvd step 2 boot from dvd....?
Add the AD role and choose your internal domain name, try something like organisation.internal (.local will make macs fail) this will also install DNS and configure it. Setup DHCP, I think it may even be part of the AD setup wizard and then turn off DHCP on the router. Join a few test workstations to AD. Start playing with Group policy and user shares/logons etc.
What I see;
Already booted with DVD - now restarting to the "The user's password must be changed before logging on the first time." I'll do it right away and wait for info from you and others! :D
Actually the first time I installed yesterday afternoon along with dns, dhcp and ad then got something messed up with dns, couldn't get one of node to join to the domain's server. So I deiced to start over from scratch and follow your and others' instructions. SHOULD I DISCONNECT THAT MACHINE FROM THE NETWORK?Quote:

That's what I did yesterday and somehow it got messed up so I want to start over again. Maybe I missed something but wanted to get some advises from the experts in here! :DQuote:

Ok; everyone...
I'm at the desktop for the "first time". What's the first step I should do?
OK; I'm on it.Quote:

- reboot a pc, try joining the domain! hope you get there.
