D-2 VMS User Guide
• All existing disk volumes use the NTFS file system. Active Directory
requires at least one NTFS volume in which to store the SYSVOL folder
and its contents. FAT32 volumes are not secure, and they do not support
file and folder compression, disk quotas, file encryption, or individual file
permissions.
• Disable any extra Ethernet adapters on the server and ensure that only one
gateway is assigned to the server.
• Disable the Windows Firewall.
• Verify that the Security Configuration Wizard is installed and enabled.
This Appendix is divided into two parts. The first part describes configuring a
Domain Controller and Domain Name Server (DNS) on a single server which
can then be used either as a stand-along VMS server or as the Primary VMS
server in a redundant configuration.
The second part of this Appendix, starting with the section “Configuring a
Secondary Domain Controller” on page D-15, describes configuring a second-
ary Domain Controller and Domain Name Server on the Secondary or backup
server in a redundant VMS installation.
