Install Windows Server 2003 and create a backup server

Network management documentation Server 2003 as details of how to install, create a companion server in case the main server is malfunctioning, create a domain, join the client to the domain, the conection {remote desktop from the client data to server}, set ADSL router parameters to server, turn off 1 working machine immediately.

- If you add more computers to the domain, add a Switch to ensure the best data transfer and internet access.

- How much number of machines should I use ADSL at a speed (eg about 50 machines, 70 machines, more than 100 machines).

With the above question, we will respond in turn as follows:

Details how to install the domain and install the ADSL router parameters to the server:

You must first Install Windows Server 2003

Default gateway: 10.0.0.1 (Note Default Gateway 10.0.0.1 is also the IP address of ADSL Router Ethernet Card).

Preferred DNS server: 10.0.0.2 and Additional DNS server are the addresses that the ISP provided to the ADSL Router, for example: 203.162.4.1

23. First appearing on the screen is the Manage Your Server page, you should check " Don't display this page at logon checkbox " and close the Window window.

The next step is the process of installing and configuring DNS before running the dcpromo utility

The next step is to install the Domain Naming System (DNS) server on this server. This is necessary because Active Directory Service operates on Domain Controllers, controlling all Domains requires DNS server service for querying needs such as hostname, registration of records (A, PTR, SRV records, etc.). ). We will install the DNS server and then raise this Computer role to a Domain Controller, and this DNS server will serve the query for the entire Domain.

Perform the following steps to install the DNS server

1. Click Start, Control Panel. Click Add or Remove Programs .

2. In Add or Remove Programs , click Add / Remove Windows Components

3. In Windows Components , see the list of Components and click Networking Services entry> Click Details.

4. Check the Domain Name System (DNS) checkbox and click OK.

5. Click Next in Windows Components .

6. Click Finish on the Completing the Windows Components Wizard .

7. Close Add or Remove Programs

Next we create Forward lookup zone for the Domain that this Computer will be the Domain Controller. Proceed with the following steps:

1. Right click Forward Lookup Zone and click New Zone .

2. Click Next on the Welcome to the New Zone Wizard page .

3. On the Zone Type page , select Primary zone option and click Next.

4. On the Zone Name page , enter the name of the forward lookup zone in the Zone name text box . In this example, the name of the zone is quantrimang.com , which matches the name of the Domain that will be created later. Put quantrimang.com in the text box. Click Next.

5. Accept the default settings on the Zone File page and click Next.

6. On Dynamic Update page , select Allow both nonsecure and secure dynamic updates . Click Next.

7. Click Finish on the Completing the New Zone Wizard page .

8. Expand the Forward Lookup Zones and click on MSFirewall.org zone . Right click on quantrimang.com and Click New Host (A).

2. Logon to the client, and perform the same process as Creating a Companion Server in case the main Server fails.

3. Logon to the domain with the domain user has been created

Remote destop and shutdown remote client:

Let the remote machine and server do the following:

1. In the computer - properties - remote - select enable remote desktop on this computer

2. We can then logon to the remote enabled computers using the Remote Desktop Connnection tool. Enter the IP address of the server and client and use the administrator user to remote. After the remote successful, we can shut down the remote computer easily, via the shutdown tab in the start menu.

3. If you add more computers to your domain, how do you add switches to ensure the best data transfer and internet access?

When you add a client to the domain, you need to add the corresponding switches, because each machine needs a port on the swith. For example, if you have 40 computers, you must have 2 24-port switches to accommodate 40 computers connected.

4. Number of machines and ADSL line with the right speed

If there are many computers in the domain, you only need to add a switch, and ADSL transmission depends on each service provider, you can choose ADSL of FPT, Viettel, VDC . Also if the number of computers Many of you should choose ADSL package with the highest speed. to enable users in the network to browse, download and upload easily.
