Server.
Click on Start > Run

1 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
Now type dcpromo > Click OK
The system will start checking if Active Directory Domain Services ( AD DS) binaries are installed, then will
start installing them. The binaries could be installed if you had run the dcpromo command previously and then
canceled the operation after the binaries were installed.
2 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
The Active Directory Domain Services Installation Wizard will start, either enable the checkbox beside Use
Advanced mode installation and Click Next , or keep it unselected and click on Next
The Operating System Compatibility page will be displayed, take a moment to read it and click Next
3 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
Choose Create a new domain in a new forest, Click Next
Enter the Fully Qualified Domain Name of the forest root domain inside the textbox, click Next
4 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
If you selected Use advanced mode installation on the Welcome page, the Domain NetBIOS Name page appears.
On this page, type the NetBIOS name of the domain if necessary or accept the default name and then click Next.
Select the Forest Functional Level, choose the level you desire and click on Next.
5 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
Make sure to read the description of each functional level to understand the difference between each one.
In the previous step, If you have selected any Forest Functional Level other than windows Server 2008 and
clicked on Next , you would then get a page to select the domain Functional Level. Select it and then click on
Next
6 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
In the Additional Domain Controller Options page, you can select to install the domain Name Service to your
server. Note that the First domain controller in a forest must be a Global Catalog that’s why the checkbox beside
Global Catalog is selected and it cannot be cleared. The checkbox is also selected by default when you install an
additional domain controller in an existing domain, however you can clear this checkbox if you do not want the
additional domain controller to be a global catalog server. The first domain controller in a new forest or in a new
domain can not be a Read Only Domain Controller (RODC), you can later add a RODC but you must have at
least one Windows Server 2008 Domain Controller.
I want to set my DC as a DNS Server as well, so I will keep the checkbox beside DNS server selected and click
on Next
If you don’t have static ip assigned to your server you will see similar to the following screen now you need to
assign static ip and start the above process.
7 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
If the wizard cannot create a delegation for the DNS server, it displays a message to indicate that you can create
the delegation manually. To continue, click Yes
Now you will have the location where the domain controller database, log files and SYSVOL are stored on the
server.
8 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
The database stores information about the users, computers and other objects on the network. the log files record
activities that are related to AD DS, such information about an object being updated. SYSVOL stores Group
Policy objects and scripts. By default, SYSVOL is part of the operating system files in the Windows directory
either type or browse to the volume and folder where you want to store each, or accept the defaults and click on
Next
In the Directory Services Restore Mode Administrator Password (DSRM) page, write a password and confirm it.
This password is used when the domain controller is started in Directory Services Restore Mode, which might be
because Active Directory Domain services is not running, or for tasks that must be performed offline.Make sure
that you memorize this password when you need it.
9 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
Summary page will be displayed showing you all the setting that you have set . It gives you the option to export
the setting you have setup into an answer file for use with other unattended operations, if you wish to have such
file, click on the Export settings button and save the file.
DNS Installation will start
10 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
Followed by installing Group Policy Management Console, the system will check first if it is installed or not.
Configuring the local computer to host active directory Domain Services and other operations will take place
setting up this server as a Domain Controller active Directory Domain Services installation will be completed,
click Finish.
11 of 25 20-10-2010 00:20
Click on Restart Now to restart your server for the changes to take effect.
Once the server is booted and you logon to it, click on Start > Administrative Tools
you will notice that following have been installed :
Active Directory Domains and Trusts
Active Directory Sites and Services
Active Directory Users and Computers
ADSI Edit
DNS
Group Policy Management

There is a whole Step-by-Sep video series about Windows Server 2008 AD DS installation which demonstrates
different scenarios (including IFM, RODC, Core server DC etc). Here is an example:

This is exactly what I needed, thanks
Comment by Paul on December 18, 2008 @ 6:41 am
Thanks for the walk-through. I followed these steps and all worked as described… but…
Still no joy getting other workstations/servers to see the server or one another.
I’ve got a home-lab network I’m trying to set up for testing Hyper-V, DPM, etc. We’ve had Comcast and now
have Verizon FiOS, so I’m used to using the broadband router as the DHCP server and DNS address provider,
with a little workgroup networking among peers.
Where do I go to learn what settings I need to change in each of these newly configured items?
How do I set up the new DNS Server to pick up DNS addresses from FiOS and provide them to its clients?
How do I get the AD Server to provide rights and directory services to its clients?
I basically want the simplest, most wide-open LAN I can set up – really I’m trying to get as close to a
home-networking workgroup as I can… but for some things (like DPM) I need a domain controller.
Thanks!
-Bob

You need to log in to your newly created domain account as administrator…not to your local computer account.

Hey Paul, from the sounds of it your problem is Verizon. They don’t allow inbound traffic on standard internet
and is very restrictive regarding home networks. Comcast doesn’t restrict inbound traffic. You would probably
need to go to Verizons business class to get what you want.
Thanks for the walk through WR.com!

Comment by sviluppatore on June 26, 2009 @ 3:34 pm
we are having Dell server with windows 2008 server OS
i found while creating the domain that
the local administrator account becomes the domain aadministrator account when you creat a new domain. the
new domain connot be created because the local administrator account password does not meet requirements.
currently, a password is not required for local administrator account. we recommend that you use the net user
commond-line tool with /passwordreq:yes option to require a password for this account before you creat the new
domain; otherwise , a password will not be required for the domain adiministrator account.
i need trhe solution for this issue
Comment by arunkumar on July 9, 2009 @ 7:16 am
We faced a problem that when we reach the step of create a new domain in a new forest and click next, an error
message appear:
The message is the local administrator account becomes the domain administrator account when you create a
new domain. The new domain can not be created because the local administrator account password does not
meet requirements
Comment by najla on July 9, 2009 @ 1:52 pm
arunkumar, you have to go right click Computer, click Manage, expand Configuration node, expand Local Users
and Groups, and look for the Administrator account, then right click on it and Set Password…
Password must meet complexity requirements described here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library

Good article. I noticed from your screenshot that you have the same issue I have. I promoted a member server to
domain controller. Everything seems to work fine, but where a member server has a local security policy snap in
under admin tools, a DC should have Domain Controller Security Policy listed. Your screen shot does not and
my DC does not. I can not make any changes to the local security policy do to any Domain level changes are
greyed out because they are supposed to be handled at the DC level. How do I get the domain controller security
policy installed?

I have added a Windows XP machine as a member server to this domain (Windows 2008 Data Center).
However, while logging into the XP machine, it gives an error stating that the domain is unavailable. Can
someone please help?
Comment by Sagar on December 14, 2009 @ 10:06 am
I had the same issue as Bob above when I was creating a Demo domain for SQL Server Community event
demonstrations and labs. The way to resolve it was found here: http://forums.techarena.in/active-directory
/1032797.htm.
It was a case of configuring the FORWARDERS under the DNS server properties in the DNS management
console. (see comment 9 in the forum).
Thanks Meinolf Weber!

I was able to create a AD with my 08 Server R2 but I am having problems getting my computers to connect or
get my Verizion Fios to talk to the server. If anyone can help with the following I would be very grateful.
-Settings and Steps to have Verizon Fios Modem feed internet to the Server 2008. then have server feed out IPs
and network information to client computers (about 5)
-Join client computers to AD as well as add computers easily
to home network.
So basically get Fios to Server then computers to access files and network from server
Thanks if you can help.

Go to Active Directory User and Computers, expand the tree next to your domain until you see the users folder.
Right click on the users folder and under task select Add User. Follow the onscreen wizard and you will
successfully create your new user.

The default password policy requires you have at least 1 capital letter in your password and typically 1 numeric
value. I think it has to be 6-8 characters long as well. I’d stick with this and not change the default password
policy.

Nice Description!!!!
Comment by akash on July 14, 2010 @ 9:46 am
Useless an stupid: … click next, next next etc. (If you need this “guide”, you should not be allowed to set up a
domain controller!)
And where is the “guide for dns server setup” !!! … you should call this “guide” “Guide to reboot on
completion” …
It should be prohibited to fill the internet with useless tthings like this … realy … If you need to look at this, you
will get NOWHERE in server 2008 … instead you should read a little, say atleast a cople of hundred pages of
serious litterature … What at stupid waste of peoples time to announce “Step By Step Guide for Windows
Server 2008 Domain Controller and DNS Server Setup” and then give them a couple of screendumps about how
to promote a stand allone server 2008 to a domain controller!!! … where is the setup? … and where is the DNS
setup … stupid!
Comment by Michael Hansen on July 21, 2010 @ 1:34 pm
Well one thing is clear, most of you lot shoulnt be let near a server! Stick to what you know or take the time to
learn before you start messing with servers.
From 2k onwards networks pretty nuch will not function unless dns is correctly configured. And contrary to
what a couple of plonkers have stated here just installing dns via dcpromo is not sufficient. Go and learn about
dns all of you!!!!!!!!
Just shows that certification is no substitute for experience!!!!!

The server did not finish checking the license compliance. If the server is joined to a domain, make sure that the
server can connect to a domain controller. If the license compliant check cannot be completed, the server will
automatically shut down in 0 hour(s) 30 minute(s).
im pretty new to this so i dont know what im supposed to do… any ideas?

Some few posts ago there was a link to another blog or whatever that mentioned that the Server 2008 requires
FORWARDERS to be set up in order to have the clients PCs to join the AD. I did have several servers from
2000, 2003 and now the stupid 2008. I hate Microsoft automation to the point of brainlessness. I think I am
going to go back to 2003 since it was the easiest one to set up manually. FYI I recently updated firmware on my
DIR-655 to the latest one and this one does DNS (ISP) forwarding in the router and now the 2008 is going nuts
on me, and I had the 2008 working fine. Why did I thinker with the 2008 server when it worked in the first
place??!?!?!?!?!?! Oh, well back to the drawing board I am getting Minasi’s book “Mastering MS Server 2008
R2” I am not selling anything just acknowledging the fact that the guy can write Windows books.
