==> Make sure the PC has an IP address before starting this <== [you can set one in sconfig]


Install the domain controller services 

Install-WindowsFeature -name AD-Domain-Services -IncludeManagementTools

Make this PC a domain controller. The "Safe Mode Administrator password" is the same as the regular administrator password that is set when first booting the pc. 

Install-ADDSForest -DomainName mario.corp -ForestMode default -DomainMode default -DomainNetbiosName mariocorp -InstallDns:$true



Optional quality of life for my setup:


SSH Service: [config file is in C:\ProgramData\ssh\sshd_config]

Install the openssh server 

Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name OpenSSH.Server~~~~0.0.1.0

Start the sshd service 

Start-Service sshd

Make it autostart 

Set-Service -Name sshd -StartupType 'Automatic'
