Active Directory? Can't get it to work.
I am not sure if my network and/or server is really misbehaving or that I am just too stupid to understand how this should work.
I am preparing my macmini server to run a small (audiovisual) company network. I especially want to use the server as a multiplatform fileserver. I am planning to hook an Areca ARC8050 thunderbolt RAID up to my macmini as an all client shared drive.
Can OS X Server (I am running the latest version) be an OD and AD server at the same time?
Do I have to setup an AD or is it already present/active on the server side?
How do I create or find the AD domain? Both my domain and subdomain.domain don't work.
How do I find my network administrator credentials? I have never registered a network administrator account so how would I know these credentials?
I have been bumping into errors all the time. No matter what settings or credentials I use.
My FQDN is server.domain.com
When I use domain.com (trying to bind client to server)
I get this error.
When I use server.domain.com I get this error.
DNS on the server side seems to be setup alright (nothing to change).
Client uses server as DNS lookup (server has the static IP adres 10.0.0.2).
All AD related ports are open.
Binding to OD works fine.
I am really lost here. What am I missing? Hope somebody can help me!
Thanks.
