New Setup Reccomendations…

by mmerchant . Updated 21 years, 9 months ago

Hello all, I am setting up a new system yay! So I thought I’d ask people here for some feedback/suggestions.

I would like to have Terminal Services, VPN, Application, and of course Active Directory avialable. Now for these tasks I have decided on two seperate servers. My question to you all is how should I group them?

Server 1
Terminal Server
Application Server

Server 2
Active Directory
VPN

that’s what I was thinking, more over because Server 1 is a Duel Processor server.

The reason why I am setting this up is for two reasons, just so I can experiment and learn from pratcial experience.

Currently I have just one server that has Application Server, Terminal Server, and Active Directory all together. However I botched it up pretty bad and now no new comps can join my domain (Network path can not be found), so this time around since I’ve built a new system (duel processor) I can hopefully make it properly and not have to worry about it too much except for the updates, and such.

By the way, if it’s clear yet I am using Windows Server 2003.

I appreciate you taking the time to read and hopefully answer my question.
