In this video, we install and configure Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) on Windows Server 2019 and promote the server to a Domain Controller.
Active Directory is the foundation of most enterprise IT environments. It allows administrators to centrally manage users, computers, authentication, and security policies across a network.
In this tutorial, you will learn:
• How to install AD DS
• How to create a new forest and domain
• How to promote a server to Domain Controller
• How to verify the domain installation
