Click Close Figure Logon into a Windows Server server as Administrator. Figure : Run dcpromo On the Welcome screen, click Next Figure Figure : Operating System Compatibility Screen Click Next Figure However, this exercise is assuming your server will be the first domain controller in the forest.

This ensures that any new domains created in this forest will automatically operate at the Windows Server domain functional level, which does provide unique features. If you had a network that has a Windows Remote Access Server, you would select the compatible option Figure Additionally, the first domain controller within a domain is a global catalog server. Either assign static IP addresses or click Yes; the computer will use a dynamically assigned IP address and configure static IP addresses later.

As a best practice, domain controllers should use statically assigned IP addresses. This is normal when installing DNS for the first domain controller in a forest. Click Yes to continue Figure Figure : Warning Dialog Box This password is needed if you need to restore Active Directory Domain Services.

Summary Windows Server brings a lot of new features and benefits that will drive a lot of migrations to the new operating system.

This chapter presented many of these new additions. One of the significant benefits of Windows Server is virtualization. Each edition can be purchased with or without Hyper-V, which is the technology that supports virtualization. The Standard edition supports one virtual server, the Enterprise edition supports as many as four virtual servers, and the Datacenter edition supports an unlimited number of virtual servers.

Virtualization is supported only on bit operating systems. In this chapter, you learned about the new features of Windows Server Exercises led you through the process of installing Windows Server on a PC. After reviewing many of the basics of Active Directory Domain Services, you learned how to promote the server to a domain controller. These settings can be overridden for a particular user, a group of users, or all users.

You will create a number of organizational units. An OU acts as a container that holds objects such as users. Creating Organization Units In the following exercise, you will create some organizational units that will act as containers for some users. These organizational units model the departments within a small organization.

Logon server as administrator. Launch Active Directory Users and Computers. Click on the myserver. Figure : Expand Domain 4. Enter Stkm as the name for the new organizational unit Figure Uncheck Protect container from accidental deletion Figure Figure : Create Organization Unit 8. Repeat step 3 to 7 to create the organizational units Sted and Sklr Figure Figure : Organization Unit Creating organizational units lets you place users directly into units and assign permissions and rights based on these units.

This leads to better administration and delegation control than if you placed users directly into the user container. When users move from one department to another, it is a simple matter to move the user to the corresponding organizational unit. In this way, they inherit all the new features and rights and of the new organizational unit, ensuring they have full access to all the resources they are entitled to. In the following exercise you will create a number of users, modify their properties, and move them from one organizational unit to another.

Click the Stkm OU to highlight it Figure Enter the following details for Zul Figure Enter the password as comby. Click Finish to create the new user Zul Figure Figure : New User Account Confirmation The warning below will appear.

This warning appears because your password does not meet the password policy requirements. Click OK to continue Figure Figure : Password Policy Warning Click Cancel to close new user account confirmation window Figure To disable password policy requirements; launch Group Policy Management. Double click to expand Forest: myserver. Expand Domains. Expand myserver. Click Default Domain Policy Figure Figure : Group Policy Management If any warning box appeared; just click OK Figure Double click to expand Policies Figure Expand Windows Settings.

Expand Security Settings Figure Double click to expand Account Policies Figure Click Password Policy Figure Double click Password must meet complexity requirements under Password Policy to open Password must meet complexity requirements Properties. Set No password required to 0 characters Figure Figure : Minimum Password Length Properties Recheck your configuration.

Your configuration should be same as figure below Figure After restarting server, login as Administrator and start create user Zul Zcomby again follow step 10 to There should be no problem anymore. Create the following user account in the Sted OU Figure Create the following user account in the Sklr OU. Note the down arrow that appears on the icon for the user Md Saad, indicating this account has been disabled Figure It is easy to delete, rename or move a user from an organization unit.

In the above exercise the user Md Saad was inadvertently placed in the wrong OU. Right-click the user Md Saad and select move from the list Figure Figure : Move Users Click Stkm as the destination OU Figure Figure : Stkm OU Members You have now created a number of users within the organizational units created earlier.

At this stage, you cannot see the benefits of doing this. However, the later exercises will start to illustrate why this has been done, by allocating resources to organizational units. Thus, a user will get access to a resource based on their OU membership properties. If a user moves from one organizational unit to another, they will inherit all the resources associated with the new OU. Active Directory allows organizations to store significantly more information than in previous versions of Windows.

For example, you can store telephone and office information in the Active Directory with the user information. Figure : User Properties Enter the following details Figure Click OK to apply the changes. Figure : Md Saad Properties Click Account tab Figure Click the Logon Hours button Figure Figure : Logon Hours Select all areas and click Logon Denied Figure Select the areas Monday to Friday and 8am to 5pm Figure Select Logon Permitted Figure Click the OK button.

Click the OK button again. In the above exercise you assigned some organizational information to a user. You also explored some of the properties that can be applied. This computer will act as a client computer that users of your network can use to access shared resources such as files, software and printers.

Make sure that the Windows Server previously installed is running. Please refer to the following table for client configuration. Run Network Connections application program. Figure : Run Network Connections 2. Right click Local Area Connection Figure Figure : Local Area Connection 3.

You will be back in the System Properties, where you are now listed as being part of a domain Figure Figure : System Properties — Computer Name Click OK to close the remaining dialog boxes Figure Click YES to restart the computer. Figure : Restart Confirmation. When a client workstation is installed using Windows XP Professional or Windows Professional or Windows Vista or Windows 7, it has its own accounts database and rights.

When that client computer joins a domain or Windows Server network, this means that the domain wide accounts are available for use at the workstation. When a user logs on using the client computer, any policies are applied to the client computer. Client workstations running Windows XP Professional have their own local accounts database.

This means it is possible for an administrator on the workstation to create a local workstation account, which is not the same as the domain account, and allow users to logon to the local computer rather than the domain.
