Since we don??™t expect any non??“Windows Server 2008
domain controllers to participate in this forest, select Windows Server 2008 as the
forest functional level (Figure 4-10). Click Next.
11. The Active Directory Domain Services Installation Wizard will automatically
detect that your DNS hasn??™t been configured and will automatically check the
DNS Server option in the Additional Domain Controller Options screen. The
Global Catalog option is also selected by default since it is required for the
first domain controller in a domain. You cannot select the Read-only Domain
Controller option since the first domain controller cannot be made read-only
(see Figure 4-11). Click Next to continue. If you see a warning that a delegation
for this DNS Server will not be created, click Yes to continue.
12. In the Location for Database, Log Files, and SYSVOL screen, specify the
location of the Active Directory database, log files, and SYSVOL folder. By
default, it points to %WINDIR%\NTDS for the database and log files and
%WINDIR%\SYSVOL for the SYSVOL. You can either enter new paths here or
click Browse to select the folders. Since this is only an exercise, leave the default
settings as shown in Figure 4-12. Click Next to continue.
