Class Notes
Introduction
Domains provide an easier way for Administrators to manage Accounts, Permissions and Security for a large network.
Domain Basics
Domain controllers provide access keys to clients to allow or restrict access to network resources
Single place to administer permissions and security
Permissions and Security can be assigned to: Users, Groups, Organization Units
Permissions mean access to shared resources such as files, folders and printers. Security means restrictions about changing desktop background, password policies, access to local drives.
Ways to Have a doming
Windows is the standard type of domain environment
SAMBA -- Linux version of a PDC
Novell -- Still exists...
You need a business class Windows Operating System to join a domain. XP Pro, Vista Business / Ultimate, 7 Business / Ultimate
Domain Controllers
PDC/ BDC Structure. The PDC has a read and write copy of the security database. If the PDC fails a BDC will provide security information to the network. The BDC has a READ only copy of the database and so administrators cannot change user permissions on a BDC. A BDC can be promoted to a PDC. There is only one PDC in a domain at a time.
Active Directory. All Domain Controllers have read and write access (Theoretically, this can be modified).
Structure
Trusts allow users from one Domain to log on to computer in another Domain. Small offices would never need this. This is for large corporations that own numerous companies. If the Geek from the parent company needs to do work on the computers at the child company a trust relationship between the domains would be created.
There are multiple types of Trusts: One Way, Two Way, Transient
Final Thoughts
Domains are a great tool for large networks, but they require specialized computer technicians and equipment. Depending on the cost/ benefit analysis they may not be a good idea for small networks.
Resources
Novel Open Enterprise Server
SAMBA
Understanding Organizational Units

We love you Eli.

Eli the Computer Guy.. This video was uploaded back in 2011 and yet it came to use for me. I've just landed a desktop support position and have been hitting the books so I am prepared for anything. Thank you so much for the free lessons. Keep being you!

[@earbundance7996]

Seriously I saw that this video was about an hour long and I almost did not watch it because I am working and did not think I had the time. I am glad I did because this was soooo helpful in helping me understand domains, which prior to watching this video my understanding was blurry. Thanks for taking the time ti describe. I have to audit networks and understanding domains and their function helos a great deal. I just subscribed. Awesome video for beginners

[@ParveenKumar-hd5tt]

i recently joined mcsa course and your video was very helpful to understand it. your teaching is very good. I appreciate your patience. keep it up. good job.

[@augustinea.sillah5355]

This man has given me the confident to go into networking without no trouble. I am no longer intimidated has I use to be. with Eli your IT life is possible. Big up man.

[@akshaya8074]

You are an amazing teacher....Thank you.

[@dannylouis1210]

I am glad you take a chance to explain things like these.👍👍👍

[@ramankaur2121]

Eli you saved my life...you are a great teacher...God bless u...:)

[@adamomer6362]

you are the best teacher. thank you.

[@wh0m33]

excellent! Eli, you may be out of your mind, but as a teacher, YOU DA' MAN!!

[@NeoCodingGod]

People may not realize how clear you speak. You enunciate everything to the point that I can double the speed of your video (x2 from settings) and still everything sound clear and normal :) I do this with other videos, I understand them but they do not sound natural. It's if you slowed your normal speech speed to half of your normal speed?

[@NeoCodingGod]

@Jackie O That wasn't my point. I am a native speaker. I was referring to a quality he has in his voice/delivery & I do not think he meant it to be so. Wow a reply after 4 years! This is science fiction ! :)

[@aragon988]

@@NeoCodingGod True. he enunciate clearly and the reason is that he speaks from chest level and not any higher.

[@ogunsadebenjaminadeiyin2729]

@@aragon988 Please, what's the science behind speaking from chest level? I'm a budding linguist.

[@Grumpy_Wolf]

Thank you so much! I have been trying to figure out domains, forests and trees for a week and this video helped me get half way there at least.

[@elithecomputerguy]

@algnadjib yes... that's one of the main purposes of a Domain.

[@ahmedalmonthiry3420]

what a great class!!! thank you Eli

[@stevetan2331]

Eli your videos are great. I love the way you explain things. If this was a real class you would've had 170000 students!!

[@user-lw2wg6gn3t]

Would just like to say that I have found this video alongside many of your others incredibly helpful. A very big thanks to you Eli.

[@omarosman6180]

[@roadshowautosports]

Eli, just would like to thank you for all of your kindness and dedication on sharing your, so vast, knowledge. I'm getting into the servers right now and trying out the samba server that became very much like you said, it may or may not work well with windows. If you have some good sources (easier to understand) about the subject or you have a video you already did or plan to do, please let us know it! Again, thank you so much for the simple language and easy to understand conceptual class!!!!

[@sormu16]

[@markhynes2588]

So well explained, keeping the techno speak to a minimum.. Thanks Eli

[@jim7smith]

Eli. I love your style, your knowledge of a myriad of subjects is astounding. However, I wish you would up the input volume for your microphone. We can always turn you down, but we cannot increase beyond a certain point. A LOT of us out here either have hearing loss and/or are listening with substantial ambient noise. Please increase the input volume for us. Thanks.

[@wald1dan]

Eli, You have excelent presentation skills/style. Thanks for the refresh looking forward do digging in more when I have time.

[@MrFouadrh5]

I'm not sure if I'm completely sold on Tilex yet, but I definitely trust your grasp on all things IT! Next time I'm in the grocery store I'll check the shower stall cleaner out. Might be worth it!

37:23 Well, so ah.....you're still following me there. Ha! Ha! 😂😂 Wow! So much to learn about domains. Good thing you explained what they do. Good info. Thanks!

[@brunohuonder6623]

Thx2u, you make it easy to understand this stuff.

[@elithecomputerguy]

@Durd3n001 It's Windows 7 Professional... One of the pains of dealing with Microsoft is they change the names of their products with every edition... Basically you just need the "business" edition of the OS. (NT vs 98, XP Pro vs. XP Home, Vista Business vs. Home Premium, 7 Pro vs. Home Premium...)

[@howtomakemoneyblogging3347]
