Thank you very much for the interesting AD video. I have one comment about the service account. Microsoft recommends using Group Managed Service Accounts (gMSA). These have the advantage that the password is managed by Windows and is quite long and you can define the rhythm in which the password should be changed. There are two problems with an AD account as a service user: 1. the password for an AD account is rather insecure (usually only a few characters long). 2. if the password of the AD account is changed, the password must be changed everywhere where the AD account is used as a service user. This is not necessary with a gMSA. Thank you and have a wonderful weekend.

Thanks for these videos. I'm in helpdesk but the company uses a different cloud Ad system so I don't have exposure to the default AD. Also really enjoy the practical videos! I understand the what , but sometimes need to see the how, for it to click.

Hello! I’ve been watching your videos and love what you do. I just completed my first semester of BSc IT and was wondering if you could give me a roadmap/suggestions to get to your stream (e.g certifications) of work since IT is so vast. Many thanks xx

Very informative. Can you please make a video on AD with more advance services which are commonly used on daily basics

My personal opinion - Lots of things should be covered earlier before starting the installation session - 1. IDA infrastructure by Microsoft. 2. Concept of Domain, Tree, forest, global catalog. 3. Concept of security principles, inheritance, ACLs in Microsoft. 4. Services related to active directory. 5. How the server and client interacts and the underlying networking Concept of it. 6. A brief about ntds.dit and sysvol. 7. Concept of name resolution and WINS + DNS. THERE ARE LOT MORE LEFT... My sugession is - Check the active directory global exam prep book released by Microsoft, Books written by MARK MINASI & AD COOKBOOK. This is entirely my personal openion. You can check it or drop it...
