I forgot to state I’m completing this project through an application Virtual Box. So I currently have Windows Server 2016 currently downloaded in Virtual Box.
For today’s lab all I did was change the computer name on Server 2016. It was some long irrelevant name. So I changed it to “Server 2016”. After I changed it, the system had me restart the machine so that the changes would take effect.
In the future I plan to use server manager to create shared drives, map drives, and add computers to the domain.
The next step that I did was to create Active Directory Domain Services. The purpose of this is to make this server a domain controller and add stuff to it.
Skills learned:
- Installed Active Directory
- Changed Computer Name
