Verifying Active Directory Installation
After you install AD DS and restart the computer, you should make sure that everything
is working the way it should. The first place you should check is the Directory Service
event log. If you see any warning or error messages, read through them and resolve any
problems. Next you should verify that you can access the SYSVOL share. Go to any client
in your domain and try to access \\WIN2K8DC\SYSVOL, where WIN2K8DC is the
name of your domain controller. If you have more than one domain controller, SYSVOL
is replicated via the File Replication Service, so make sure no errors occur in the File
Replication event log. Launch the Active Directory Users and Computers MMC snap-in,
and make sure you can view all the objects in your domain.
If you installed DNS as part of your AD DS installation, make sure it??™s working as
well. You should verify that no errors appear in the DNS Server event log. Open the DNS
Server MMC snap-in on your primary DNS Server and make sure it includes a zone
called _msdcs.DOMAIN, where DOMAIN is your fully qualified domain name??”such
as _msdcs.
