Introduction to Active Directory Directory Services Structure in Windows Server 2012

[@gianvillagracia4343]

2021 and I still rewatch this video whenever I forgot something. This series helped me become a System Administrator. Kudos to you Eli!

[@felinocalderon5439]

Feb 2021 ... and our trainer asked us to watch this. Means this video is really worth it.

[@kristoffziegler5100]

march 2021 we keep rollin

[@mb.prathamesh]

April 2021! Thanks Eli.

[@user-kz3db9zw5z]

Keep Eli on YouberTuber! How low can he go on scrolling to the bottom of his channel. Eli doesn't get strikes, Eli gives strikes!

[@PlanetNr4]

May 2021.... Oh, wait, we're still in April...

[@slytherinda4669]

10 years later and this video is still applicable. I am training to serve as by departments technical support person with no background in IT at all. I am very intimidated given how foreign everything is in this field. However, your videos and the clarity that you convey makes digesting this material so SO much more manageable. I was feeling overwhelmed before finding your series and despite it being 10 years old, it still seems 100% relevant to 2023. THANK YOU!

[@paakay3546]

Who is still watching this after 10yrs? You make things easy to understand

[@frosty9392]

This guy is amazing. Answering soooooo many questions i have, on so many things, and doing it quickly/clearly. I don't know how he is even able to continuously just flow through the entire class without editing or checking notes or something.

[@2007ckrao]

Eli, to just describe your efforts in one word. I would say AWESOME. It takes a lot of passion and energy to do such content and explain it so clearly. Kudos man. God bless you.

[@soulstance]

Your classes are so comprehensive with great pronunciation. One of the best on KZbin!

[@Caneladorada]

leave Indians alone man, that's racist

[@nestorcartaya694]

Hi Eli, I wanted to extend my gratitude for taking the time to create these knowledge videos.

[@gmkwan101]

Eli is a VERY GOOD instructor. He talks clear and repeats important info and summarizes it. The best instructor I met.

[@VictorPessoaDaSilva]

Brilliant video, big fan, a lot easier to understand than the books itself. Keep up the good work, looking forward to watching the full series, and I will be buying that book soon.

[@destny143001]

did u bought it?

[@sbsanni]

@@destny143001 *buy

[@randotastic]

i can't thank you enough for educating me, in such an absorbable way. you're a great teacher!

[@alitajvidi5610]

Now I understand why your videos are so popular. Watched so many videos and no one could explain as simple and as clear as you. So grateful to have you in KZbin.

[@avinashkharche152]

This guy is actually explaining how stuff works at my workplace!!

[@mtkn744]

Only one failure : It's Active Directory Domain Services not directory directory

[@mayankyadav6598]

Hii..

[@jollyleprechaun5436]

That bug doesn't even know that it will be viewed by thousands of geeks and nerds.

[@rayluo4665]

If that bug knew one common habbit of many geeks and nerds is "debug", it will certainly scare the sh*t out of it! LOL

[@jasoncarter4839]

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

[@HK-sw3vi]

D bug

[@arcticjoe1142]

This is the best explanation of Domains, Trees, and Forests I've ever seen.

[@joematthews8778]

I love the simplicity of how this is all explained! I'm excited to learn more, thank you for a great teaching style and good pacing

[@venkataanumolu8101]

Its highly recommended to the students who are very desperate in windows administration to follow his lectures !!! Its more than enough !!

[@ASHWINNS5013]

This is called a CLASSSSSS... Well explained... :):) I took a session based on the info i got from your video... Thank you Eli...

[@hmoorjani]

Fantastic explaination. Thank you Eli. I had to note down quite a couple of information I didn't know. And yes, I got the book too. Thanks. For a person below: Syd Bloke, Eli's instruction is not meant for the high end established engineer such as yourself but also for the absolute basic debutant. It's not only for people of the US but from all around the world where their accent varies and understanding is limited. You may take his instruction as dramatizing but tell you the truth, he made it so much more interesting than my Calculus teacher to which we all fell asleep half of the time. Wish you all well.

[@johnkimble1647]

Thanks Eli, I really appreciate you taking the time to do this. Your teaching style fits my learning style.

[@LelandMaurello]

2012 was only three years ago. And it's what I would expect most enterprises to be running on now. I'm coming back into tech after 15 years, this is so well done, so entertainingly explained, and so thank you!

[@jamesramos8045]

I swear you're a better teacher than my professor back in college. Thank you Eli the Computer Guy. Btw, I'm planning to take MTA Certification 365: Windows Server Administration. I want to have a MTA certificate first before I jump in MCSA.

[@ibenzawla]

Funny to say this but I have learned a lot more about WS 2012 but Eli than I did with an online class I paid a lot for. Thanks a lot sir.

[@michaelboisvert7821]

I appreciate your vids. I worked for a major telecom's IT dept for 9 years, so I understand a lot of the concepts. I usually skip through a large portion of the basic info, but I appreciate that you speak in a language all users can understand. Thanks Eli!

[@itsconfirmed6540]

hi, am master in software engineering (5 years integrated) passed out in 2010 and i was sleeping last 6 years some other jobs... now i wake up and ur videos helped a loot not get a job but to get good knowledge about my profession ... tanx .....

[@user-vn8mu7fu5k]

Well done bro! Great presentation, great charisma, excellent use of words. Ignore the haters who just hate even after they are fed for FREE. In my opinion you are the best teacher I have come across

[@WakeyOz]

Great video tutorial, Thank you for your special teaching skills. I understand ADDS a whole lot better now.

He is a guiding light to many people who would like to embrace technology, am a Great fan and a follower for many years, really benefited by his lucid teaching style, hats off to him

[@Poutymcpout]

Eli, your emphasis, enthusiasm and the amount of detailed information is why I keep watching. Thank you for the great videos!

One of the best teacher on KZbin... your face reminds me randy orton though

[@dmc549]

Great Lesson Eli! Thank you. Going to use this information for a job interview tomorrow!

these courses are fundamental for understanding modern virtualized architectures, including VMware, HyperV, and their versions now hosted on hyperscalers. So grateful for the existence of this free content.

Great job, This is the reason why Windows server still live with along Linux in corporate environment. But, Linux is better

[@3CarOneGarage]

I can't thank you enough, from one "gifted" teacher to another thank you!!!! The only way you can explain something the way you do is to be an expert at the topic. keep doing the world this service!

[@lundan]

Frankly speaking I have been an OU admin for 800 users and over 350 Computer but had no Idea about the AD DS in the way you explained.. hats off to you Eli.

[@kuba2ve]

Unrelated, but there's a bug that needs to be fixed at 33:07, at the left corner of the whiteboard.

[@benboyce8566]

Thats funny

[@alejandrocortez2888]

it starts at 18 mins

[@alekseiharlasov5294]

a fly!

[@ink5473]

Debug it with a smack of the hand, lol

[@lowgrs1]

Bad for the ADD in us. LOL

First, as Pikachu stated below, AD DS Eli is reffering to, when saying Active Directory Directory Services, is abbrevation for Active Directory Domain Services, not Active Directory Directory services - no such thing exists. (Active Directory exists, Directory Services exist, yet there is nothing that could be called Active Directory Directory Services in one phrase.) Second, AD DS (Active Directory Domain services) is not newer version of AD (Active Directory), but it's more like set of instruments used to manage the AD. And by the way, AD DS is among us since Microsoft Windows 2000 Server. Anyway this is very well built and educational video with high potencial of common users understanding the concept of AD = above said means this comment is no hate, just a correction. PS: There IS alternative to AD on Linux/Unix systems...

Eli your teaching is at GOD level! Thank you so much, this videos series are more than sufficient to build the foundation of Windows Server.

[@JacobKomisar]

Fantastically helpful, wonderfully illustrated. Thank you for making this approachable for a new Active Directory Directory Services Admin.

[@Afroliam]

THIS IS SO USEFUL! thank you, I have a college qualification but i wish to do networking, i was never taught about ADDS sop this'll be useful when i apply for a job, I can tell them i know how all this works and that i'm able to after i practice some.

[@Randomthoughts944]

Thank you for all your effort

[@Aaronanimeify]

I am just starting on Active directory Directory services as I have being on Networking for 5 years and Your video is great to learn about the real world on this.

Hello Eli, May Allah Bless You .. Great Tutorial. I really like it.

[@fitratmohammadabdullah668]

This is the best ever tutorial I have got for the basics of Active Directory Directory Services. Thank you very much for this, Eli.

[@akanisisnaululoa3788]

2023 i enjoy all your vidoes, very informative

[@TheWatchover07]

Man in the minute 33:08 a bug invaded your Domain in the white board. Did the bug belong to the OU group to has access to the main White board Domain????.....Apologize Brother...You are really good and I have learning a lot from you....Keep teaching Brother, you really have the skills to teach.

[@johnmcguire6443]

Hi Eli, this video helped me tremendously to get the big picture Thank you so much. One thing I didn't understand was the difference between Groups and OUs. It seems like they both do the same thing.

[@Kummmkkkff213]

i got the same doubt... i guess yes, they both are same :-)

[@stevo946]

OUs are like the admins of groups

[@leecartwright5857]

No, OUs are not the same as groups; think of an OU as a box that you keep your user / computer in and then groups are like clubs that your user / computer is a member of, your user can be a member of many groups but you can only keep it in one box.

[@chudianya5878]

Thank you so much for not just knowing the subject but having the incredible skill to teach so that everyone can understand it.

[@humanityisislam]

You are such a terrific instructor not just for english speaking people but also for foreigners

[@logmeinwtf]

AD DS = Active Directory Domain Services (not Active Directory Directory Services) Right?

[@subashthapa2397]

Pikachu i think according to eli, name has change from active directory domain services to active directory directory services from windows 2012

[@smokeyh37]

V For Pikachu Everything I've found states AD DS = Active Directory Domain Service. Its published that way on Technet and in the Windows server 2012 Unleashed book. This confused me a bit also.

[@TheBigAnkle]

+V For Pikachu ADS (Active Directory Services) = ADCS (Active Directory Certificate Services) + ADDS (Active Directory Domain Services) + ADFS (Active Directory Federation Services) + ADLDS (Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services) + ADRMS (Active Directory Rights Management Services). There's no such thing as Active Directory Directory Services. Nevertheless, whatever he calls ADS is not going to change how it works. I guess it's just a slip of the tongue that got stuck in his memory. It's funny that he emphasizes the correct use of names though...

[@ModnificentTV]

same poop - different stink

[@mtkn744]

Yeah right. It's Active Directory Domain Services

[@karanmeetsingh5068]

33:09 That's a bug in Active Directory Directory Services.

[@vishnureddy2013]

Hi Eli when ur talking about OU's u said that the instead of going to Boston , u have given the Boston admin the OU rights , but from a remote desktop server u can able to do these changes ,can we r not? plzz any one reply me

[@ModnificentTV]

Literally

[@ModnificentTV]

Not securely you can't - remember that we are talking about a server and not a regular setup

[@benoni1640]

You are consistently clear , understandable, high valued IT knowledge and up beat ...throughout your videos ! GOD BLESS ... thanks

[@ArjunKalidas]

One of the best videos on AD so far. Thanks a lot Eli The Computer Guy. Absolutely fantastic and easily digestible.

[@YungJeez7]

Dude you are fucking awesome!! excuse my language but you have no idea how much you help me.. thanks a lot sir.

[@deebucket6806]

Hey Eli, do you have a video on LDAP? If so let me know so I can watch. Thanks.

[@akhibiqbal2938]

Wow. This video is very clear and exhaustive. I have been trying to learn about AD basics from past couple of days and my seacrh ends here. Eli is just an amazing instructor with great knoeledge. I never post comments, i guess this is the first time i ever posted a comment on a KZbin video. Great job Eli and thanks a lot for this wonderful video!!

[@sudarshanbabu70]

I have worked on Active directory but trust me I was afraid to mention that in my resume as in the interview interviewer rips of me with questions on AD. I gained confidence now trust me the man I love watching your videos and you have trained me more than any other study materials. Thank you very much.

[@anonymous-do5bs]

Isnt it called active directory domain services?

[@FearlessWisdom]

Delegate admin control to Marketing!? Oh jesus christ why?

[@lowgrs1]

You are a blessing to people like me. You explain in such a great way. I am very technical , but not in the specifics a user would know. You give the clarifications that make the difference from getting it and not. Thank you!!!!!!

[@bulcub]

Your oldies but goodies videos have saved my ass on many a day. God Bless you bro!!

[@tausifsiddiqui9297]

Please upload some vids on exchange server.

[@lefthook5385]

Thank you, Eli! I was introduced to Active Directory and all this information was just thrown at me, one after another. After watching this though, I understand it so much better. I know this is an old video, but man this was helpful! Thank you. I hope that random bug that crawled around on the left learned as much as I did,

[@grahambrown5874]

Amazing video. I struggled with this for years and now in one video I fully understand the concept and value of AD DS. Thank you👍

[@vtwl24]

The irony is that Google uses Ubuntu and probably doesn't use Windows servers.

[@getreadytotube]

This was really helpful. When you started relating the subject to the context of databases and schemas, everything started to click. Thanks.

[@qiangdai4698]

Excellent! Extract the real key points of active directory. Finally understand why we need active directory directory service.

[@Jzarecta]

What about OpenLDAP?

[@LordVysh]

JZA Works great for user management but doesn't scale in the same way when you have users in a Windows environment unfortunately. Openldap is great though.

[@Dutchboysracing]

31:15 the bug appears

[@llrk2003]

+Jean-Pierre Holland t actually shows up at 19:40 also

[@seebiju]

+Jean-Pierre Holland lol

[@marigalloway]

+Jean-Pierre Holland It actually first appears right around 16:40. I thought I was trippin when I saw it and it just went right up the pole. lol

[@piyushjain4822]

Visiting this after 4 years to prepare for interview again. Thank you Sir !!

[@brandonpaul6448]

Eli's videos have helped so much with the basic understanding of so many subjects. Even though these are old, the networking videos really break it down into simple constructs that a newbie for that field can understand. Keep it up sir! Edit: besides the whole Linux not suitable for large infrastructures thing. Maybe this was true 4 years ago? Not anymore though

[@LToledo01]

IS it Active Directory Directory Services or Active Directory Domain Services?

[@Baby_Bear769]

+LToledo 2:07

[@brandonhenkaline1503]

+LToledo its acutally active directory domain services

[@derekblankmccoy]

Active directory DOMAIN services

I could fall asleep to this left running, then wake up an expert. Etched under my eyeballs in residual-image and ringing in my ears. Thank you, ill slap this on my CV.

[@chethangopalakrishna4264]

Whenever I need to learn something new in IT I check if Eli has any videos on it. Thank you Eli for your videos

[@brettericson890]

Anyone else see the bug at 33:05 ?

[@mandrakemdp]

Glad I'm not the only one ;)

[@Afroliam]

when you said bug, i thought you meant a program error, I was waiting for him to go on a computer then seen a fly like "i wonder if anyone else noticed" lmao

[@widebandrecords902]

what kind of bug? a fly or Beatle?

[@brettericson890]

I'm no bug expert, but by the rapidity of its initial movement, I'm think it was flying and is therefore a fly.

[@mandrakemdp]

@Wideband Records, I think it's a fly, because if it's a "beatle" would be either John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison or the other I don't remember :P (just a Joke, it's Ringo Starr). Anyway, seems to be a fly because a beetle would be walking around instead of flying ;)

[@digaum]

Isn't the correct term: "Active Directory Domain Services" instead of "Active Directory Directory Services" ???

[@rvr9000]

What I understood is that Active Directory is called nowadays as "Directory Services", so Active Directory = Directory Services. I hope you understand it.

[@rvr9000]

Also, Active Directory has multiple services underneath it, such as Directory Services for permissions.

[@digaum]

Rolando Veliz What's bugging me is that everywhere I look, including Microsoft referenced books and their site, the official name is Active Directory Domain Services, and not Active Directory Directory Services. What's more, it's really weird repeating the same word in the name. If that was the case, shouldn't the correct term be Active Directory Services? Thanks!

[@habkhal]

Hands down the best tutor on the net. God bless, Eli.

[@jeefakharjee]
