Hello all I know that you're not supposed to take an image of a DC but what if it's the only DC in the domain with no replication partner? I have a test environment using VMWare where the DC runs as a guest. I'd like to make a VM snapshot of it so I can revert back after testing things. Would this cause AD problems?

I seem to spend way too much time removing and re-adding user machines to the domain because the user starts getting the "Domain Controller Not Found" error message at login. Is there a quicker way to do this? Maybe a utility that will 'refresh' the AD configuration instead of having to remove it, go back to a workgroup, reboot, go back to AD configuration, etc.... The latter always ...

Hello, I want to be able to provide members of a security group access to manage shared folders on a Domain Controller - I would rather not use the existing builtin Administrators or Server Operators groups. Is this achievable? I've modified the Default Domain Controllers Security Group Policy; User Rights Assignment to allow the security group to logon to the DC, and also create permanent ...

Your not wasting my time at all, I am interested in keeping a discussion going until you find the right solution, gives me ideas to implement as well (after all, this is what the technet social forums are about - sharing our knowledge). I believe you can make a backup of just AD and in a small business environment I would imagine it would be just a few MB in size - you use the NTDSUTIL command ...

In a Virtual Lab I never have any real problems with reverting back. XP workstations never seem to have any trouble at all no matter how old it is. Other Member Server OS's will have trouble but when they get tripped up over it I just unjoin them from the domain,..don't even bother to reboot,...join them back to the domain and reboot. Everything is happy again. It is a lab after all...

Hi. Not just any DC, but the first DC installed in a new domain (as long as the FSMO's haven't been moved) will also be the RID Master. On W2K08 there will certainly be an event created for that type of event.

Yeah that would be my suggestion - Ideally a DC should just be a DC and be used for nothing else, of course budget constraints dont always make that possible but if you do have other servers available then I would say use those instead :) Chris
