awesome, I like the idea of the bitesized videos just focusing on a particular issue.

Note: This information is intended for a network administrator. If you are not your network's administrator, notify the administrator that you have received this information, which has been recorded in the file C:\Windows\debug\dcdiag.txt. OK An error occurred when DNS was queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate an Active Directory Domain Controller (AD DC) for domain "DC1.shahzeb". OK The error was: "An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host." (error code 0x00002746 WSAECONNRESET) The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.DC1.shahzeb

If ur internet router (optimum) is dhcp, will adding dhcp on windows server cause a conflict?

[@user-wu7xh1fc2q]

You just gave me the +5 years experience i needed for that Entry Level job

[@Cobuman]

Nice! :)

[@AbdurRahman-kc5fq]

Been working as an IT for nearly 7 years.. Even though I have configured many complicated network setups throughout my career I've always had a doubt or ambiguous side when it comes to DNS...important thing is that you're explaining 'why you're doing this' when configuring which greatly helps to understand what's happening BTS... Please always explain why you're doing this as you did here in this video since most of the youtubers forget to do unfortunately.. Thank you mate for this great video and keep up the good work!!

[@Cobuman]

My pleasure. I'm glad you like it.

Got a Desktop Support Job at a bank after doing help desk for a while. Serious imposter syndrome but this has helped a bunch. Thank u Cobuman

[@Cobuman]

My pleasure. There is always something new to learn for everyone so don't feel bad about it. Over time you will get more comfortable, I'm sure of it.

[@raghuraghu1521]

Congrats bro can u tell how u got the job in bank and what salary we can expect as a desktop engineer. Then how many days u worked as help desk. I m interested in this field so dont mind i m in beginning stage.

[@BANDMANATL]

@@raghuraghu1521 No problem. I was “help desk” for 3 years at my uncles fiber optics construction company. The reason I quote is because the issues were never very complex. Never needed to understand AD or cmd or anything but I did a lot of break fix. I put that on my resume as well as the work I did at home to understand the things I was missing. I understand I’m no expert but doing that shows an employee initiative and a willingness to learn. On top of that I stated in my interview that I’m currently working towards getting my A+ which was huge. They said it was required for my position and I didn’t have it but because I’m working towards it and they liked that. Now they’ll reimburse me for my exam when I do take it. Cool huh? Salary depends on your location. I’m making $20/hr which is high for the city I’m in but somewhere like Houston you can easily hit 28$-35$/hr as Desktop Support. It’s very competitive in those areas though so idk if you can finesse not having a cert as easily. Hope this helps

[@commieloli5182]

@@raghuraghu1521desktop engineer is not an entry level position this is level one help desk stuff not engineering stuff

[@commieloli5182]

@@raghuraghu1521sorry to be helpful this video gives you the skills to earn around 15$-25$ per hour depending on where you live. If you are in a tech hub you might be able to make 30$ an hour with this level of work but it’s unlikely in a smaller tier city

[@vikasae360]

it looks more than entry level support video, you teach how important fundamentals are , make me easy to understand. Thank you

[@Cobuman]

[@johnathangarache6754]

I have watched dozens of videos on AD and this is by far the easiest to understand! thank you for making it easy and clear.

[@Cobuman]

My pleasure. I'm glad you like it.

[@Chilledoutredhead]

I have a feeling both your channels are going to help me so much. I am hopefully starting a proper help desk job in the coming weeks, and AD, exchange, ms server were big in the job description. (my 1st job was focused on one epos software solution, so more focused on fixing it and general windows desktop issues, so i didnt really get to expand my troubleshooting experience beyond what was required to make sure the software was running on the tills) :)

[@Cobuman]

I hope so. :) Sometimes you will come across issue that you've never dealt with, but you learn it once, take notes, and be worry free.

[@brainny8721]

40:55 into the video, and let me tell you sir, you just made me realize how beautiful it is and how powerful it makes you feel when you are part of IT administration. Everything works like magic, and to practice further more i will use few vertual machines, and mess with them. This also made me realize that if you have kids, just set up a little network environment and it will be easy to control them. I never thought it was this beautiful, btw i am currently studying for A+ and Network+. This course just makes me want to get in IT more than ever. Hats off to you ❤️

[@darrelfischer465]

I recently applied for a job and during the interview I was asked to set up a DNS server with detailed information off the top of my head, on video, of which I never have IRL. Even though I was trained in school, I just couldn't do it without seeing the interface to jog my memory. The time I spent on this three part review was concise and understandable. I think I could pull it off now. In retrospect, I think the charge was a bit broad in the request. Seeing how it could be done like this or like that. Never mind which OS are we referring to.
