Lab 2

We are going to install AD in a single Domain for right now. You will notice that there doesn't seem to be install directions for AD DS in the book. A cryptic note at the end of Chapter 3 (Referenced in the previous assignment) gives some very high level advice on how to accomplish this. For this lab we will perform the following:

1. Change the hostname of your server to match the naming convention. Namely: "cpte265a" (do this first!!!)

2. Install a new Forest with a single domain [your username].internal

   1. > Install-windowsfeature -name AD-Domain-Services -IncludeManagementTools

   2. > Install-ADDSForest -ForestMode Win2012R2 -DomainMode Win2012R2 -DomainName "dra.internal" -InstallDNS:$true -CreateDNSDelegation:$false

3. Some Clean up...
   1. Make sure you are in the Eastern Time Zone
   2. Change your DNS from 216.249.119.10/11 to your IP address.
   3. Check to make sure your installation went as expected. Use some of the tools I've shown you in class (AD Users and Comps., ADSIEdit ...)
4. Make an administrative user for grading purposes name this user.
   1. Create a new user with username "dra"

   2. Give the user a password. You must turn this in as part of your assignment, or I can't grade your work!

   3. Add the user to the "Domain Admins" and "Enterprise Admins" groups.
