Active Directory to People Who Have no Clue what AD is...

[@enduranceerhunmwunsee2939]

I listened to your videos before my interview and now I just got my first job in I T ,thanks and you are a very good explainer and a great teacher.

[@Cobuman]

Congratulations! I'm glad you got a new job.

[@FourEverEvolving]

That's awesome CONGRATULATIONS!

[@nanapoku5259]

​@@Cobuman Just subscribed to your channel. You are a real teacher. I want to try my hands on this Active Directory training, but need to ask few questions especially with the downloads bit. : 1. First of all can I do this on a laptop? If yes, is there anyone specific with certain specs? 2. Do I download trial version of windows server 2019 first? 3. Then use oracle virtual box software to install a virtual machine?

[@TheAlisaMae]

Thank you so much for this well explained video. I am transitioning into tech working on getting a help desk job and was intimated by AD when searching YT for information on what it is. Most videos make it sound like another language that I can’t even get through one min, but your video is great for a beginner and takes away the anxiety. Thank you again so much!!

[@Cobuman]

It's my pleasure. I try to keep in mind different knowledge levels and start from there. I'm glad that my videos are helpful.

[@Nicrophelia]

Randomly stubled upon this video while prepping for my Azure Admin interview tomorrow, I really appreciate you going the extra mile and showing techniques that work instead of just talking about them. You earned a sub for sure!

[@CyberTronics]

You style is incredible. Why can’t people here teach like this… I struggled to understand AD for a long time because of folks going 0-100 in the first few minutes. Thank you!

Sir at 14:14 you have to uncheck the box where written (user must change password at first logon) Because you are creating a Domain account can also be called a AD account. In AD Account no option come to change password at first logon. Option appear for changing password at first logon if it's Email Account. Thanks.

[@JJFlores197]

I don't get that. Where I work, we always leave that checked so that the person can set their password to whatever they want. We use Outlook for staff email so everything syncs together.

Maybe you included it in another video but I think adding remote user setups at the beginning would be helpful for real world experience. ** Windows Home can not join Domains!!! 1. Log in as admin on users terminal and join to domain using a vpn. 2. Create user account on your admin terminal(Surface Pro) with server AD and Office 365 admin assigning a license. restart & sign back in to admin reconnecting through vpn then switch user to sign in as new user. After signing in continue signing in to one drive, office & outlook to activate subscription. back up one drive and right click to "Always Keep on Device" then set up printer using admin terminal through IP creating new user & a printer code to authorize user terminal to print. Put it on the Cloud

Hi @Cobuman, Thank you for this video. Do you have videos of how I can set up an AD for a company?

[@Cobuman]

Not yet. I will add to my list.

[@soniya503]

Hey Cobuman, one suggestion as a friend from India... Can you please lable in description that you have taught in entire video... Example-- active directory definition 2:00 , DNS 15:00 .. hope you understand what I am trying to convey. 😀

[@Cobuman]

Good idea. It's easy enough to add but I would have to go back and re-watch everything to figure out timestamps. Although, I can see how it can help. Sometimes people that watch would provide time stamps which saves me time.

[@swaroopjashu]

Great... Learnt so many things about AD.

[@Cobuman]

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoy my videos.

[@Kings_Landing_Serf]

Great start to video cobuman. I was wondering do you have any content discussing hybrid models (like cloud and on premises). I'm always see this on job descriptions and always get questions about it from recruiters. Even though I've worked for a few placed that had this model, I always left confused.

[@Cobuman]

Great question. The easiest example of hybrid setup is Office 365 and Azure AD. Basically, in order to use O365 in business, you need to create a hybrid setup with traditional AD setup. I have a crash course on O365 and few more videos on that. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6Xak3urhMeIZ80

Install Active Directory at home on a spare computer (or a real server) using Windows Server 2016. Uninstall Windows 10 Home Edition on your computers and install Windows 10 Professional. Join them to the domain. You no longer have a home network. You have an enterprise network at home. I did this back in 2005 and I still have the same exact setup.

[@Cobuman]

Windows Server 2016 and Windows 10 did not exist in 2005... 😁 I'm just joking... I know what you mean. You made a good point.

[@eurostar0711]

I had to work AD in Windows Server 2016 in last year when i took a 6 month IT course. The teacher asked me if i ever worked in an office, i told him no. LOL He seemed surprised that i knew this much. I never used Windows Server in my life and i never heard of the name Active Directory, i was just adding users, groups and passwords and so on just as practice. Same thing happened to me with my work on EXCEL, the teacher asked me for permission to use my work in his future classes. I thought my work was average but he thought differently. I think i constantly suffer from Dunning Kruger effect because even though i was always straight A student, i always underestimate myself because i know there is so much i dont know yet. Anyways thanks for your videos. You and Professor Messer are doing gods work. Do you have plans to do more videos, or updated videos? Has anything changed in IT since these 2 year old videos were posted? New software maybe?

[@Cobuman]

Great question. Yes, I have some more recent and update videos on AH, DHCP, DNS and etc. Here is a crash course example. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZ_Hh36ma9SSba8 I'm glad you're enjoying my videos and that they are useful to you. About the Dunning Kruger effect... never sell yourself short. The basic knowledge is such a powerful tool, and showing expertise in that goes a long way. Never forget that knowledge is power no matter how small it is. Always be proud of that.
