Re: TS on domain controller



Hi,

don't do this.

It is possible, it works, also with multihomed servers (!).

However, you would invest a lot, a lot and much more time in things
you'd never expect with local logon (on the TS=DC), group policies,
local profiles, roaming profiles, TS-Profiles, folder redirection, DNS,
etc. etc. etc. Buy the cheapest server hardware (with hardwaresupport)
you can find or even a normal PC (with spare parts, or simply 2
identical pieces, one for backup) as DC-hardware. This will be still
ten times cheaper than the time you'd invest to setup the DC=TS
correctly.

Again, I am not saying that it is impossible, however, also experienced
admins (I am not one of them) would run into unexpected behaviour and
errors. I have such a machine running in my very "small" environment
but I cannot recommend it and I would not do it again.
