Hi,
I have experience with networks, but I am still kind of a nOOb, as you will see...
I need a little help with the TCP/IP settings for my network.
I have two servers and about 25 clients.
The two servers:
* RBD-SRV-01 (Windows Server 2003)
Role: DC with AD and also used as the file server.
* RBD-SQL-01 (Windows Server 2000)
Role: Sql Server for shop database.
Do these settings and order sound correct?
1. Assign servers IP addresses.
RBD-SRV-01 (Domain Controller)
IP: 10.0.0.10
RBD-SQL-01 (Sql Server)
IP: 10.0.0.20
2. Use a common submask for both machines.
255.255.255.0
3. DNS (use the DCs IP address?) for both machines.
10.0.0.10
4. Set Gateway for the router for both machines.
10.0.0.1
5. Configure RBD-SRV-01 as a DHCP server.
Scope, 10.0.0.100-10.0.0.254
Router IP, 10.0.0.1
Parent Domain IP, 10.0.0.10 (use the DCs IP address?)
No Wins
6. Install DNS and AD on the DC (DC Server)
Run DCPROMO
Under connection use,
TC/IP and enter, 10.0.0.10 (use the DCs IP address?)
Gaetway, 10.0.0.1
DNS server, 127.0.0.1
Restart RBD-SRV-01 (DC Server)
7. Authorize the DHCP Server (DC Server)
open DHCP window
right-click on server and click authorize.
8. populate active directory, etc.
Is the DNS server IP adrress supposed to be the same IP address as the Domain controller?
And, why am I to set the DNS IP adress to, 127.0.0.1, during DCPROMO and not the IP adrress of the DC?
I'm a little confused on which IP addresses to use.
Thanks,
Thomas
