Indian guy on youtube always knows best! Thank you!

[@LabsHandsOn]

Thanks

[@Jobvdschouw]

@@LabsHandsOn I had to do this for school and this helped me out perfectly

[@kerlerom]

Thanks a lot Singh ! I have deployed successfully a Windows10pro image from a WDS-Win2k16server (VM) towards a ClientVM (PXE boot)... It takes longer than booting from a local ISO mounted on the VM but it works. In a real environment it should be performed at night.... I only have to understand how to capture an image now. THANKS A LOT.

Hi, please tell me , why do you need a seprate windows server for wds, can we configure wds on same dns,dc,dhcp server????? please reply.

[@mmmmmmmmx]

You can do it on the same server, but the settings in some places are a bit different if you dont seperate them. Also it is best practice to sperate services on their own VM.

Why all the IT videos are always from India?????? :O

[@purelaffs]

I Hope this answers your question: *Who's running the World?* Trump, Putin and Xi were arguing on who’s in charge of the world. US, Russia or China? Without any conclusion, they turned to Modi and asked him "Who’s in charge of the world?" Modi replied: All I know is: 1. Google CEO is an Indian 2. Microsoft CEO is an Indian 3. Citigroup CEO was an Indian 4. SoftBank Vision Fund CEO is an Indian 5. Adobe CEO is an Indian 6. NetApp CEO is an Indian 7. PepsiCo CEO was an Indian 8. Nokia CEO is an Indian 9. MasterCard CEO is an Indian 10. DBS CEO is an Indian 11. Cognizant CEO was an Indian 12. Novartis CEO is an Indian 13. Conduent CEO was an Indian 14. Diageo CEO is an Indian 15. SanDisk CEO was an Indian 16. Motorola CEO was an Indian 17. Harman CEO is an Indian 18. Micron CEO is an Indian 19. Palo Alto Networks CEO is an Indian 20. Reckitt Benckiser CEO is an Indian 21. Now IBM CEO is also an Indian origin guy 22. Britain’s Chancellor is an Indian 23. Britain’s Home Secretary is an Indian 24. Ireland’s ex Prime minister is an Indian. So who's running the World? Very interesting! That is the result of India policy since early fifties to focus on education...
