How to Import Self-Issued Certificate on a Mobile Device – Small Business Server 2008

by admin

A default installation of Small Business Server 2008 uses a Self-Issued SSL Certificate for the Exchange Server 2007 installation. We have already demonstrated in one of our SBS 2008 Screencasts how to import the Self-Issued certificate on a client machine, and allow normal functionality of Remote Web Workplace.
You have to follow a similar approach before you are able to configure ActiveSync, and connect your mobile device to an Exchange Server which uses Self-Issued SSL certificate.

In the following Step-by-Step video tutorial, you will see how to import a Self-Issued SSL certificate on a Mobile Device.

How to install active directory in windows server 2008

by admin

Promoting a Windows Server 2008 as a Domain Controller is performed by adding the Active Directory Domain Services role in Server manager. When you are adding this role you will notice also the following roles:
– Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS – provides an identity access solution
– Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) – provides directory services for applications. It replaces Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) in Windows Server 2003
– Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) – provides information-protection.
We will demonstrate the installation and configurations of these services in a series of screncasts. In the following short steps you will see how to install a new Windows Server 2008 forest. After adding the Active Directory Domain Services role we will use the Advanced mode installation in dcpromo wizard. The Advanced Mode installation provides the following additional options:
– When creating new forest – Change NetBIOS name.
– When adding new domain in an existing forest – Create a new Domain Tree, Change NetBIOS name, Source Domain Controller.
– Additional Domain Controller in an existing domain – Install from Media, Source Domain Controller, Specify Password replication Policy (for RODC).
– Create an account for RODC – Specify Password replication Policy.
– Attach a server to an account (RODC) – Install from Media, Source Domain Controller.

The DCPROMO wizard which you can use for the Active Directory Domain Services role installation provides an improved and friendlier interface compared to the previous versions of DCPROMO.
For example you don’t have to run “DCPROMO /adv” in order to use the advanced mode. As you can see in the screencast below this is available as an option in the beginning when you start the wizard.
Also you can set the Forest and Domain functional levels and export the answers which you have provided to an unattend file – in case you want to run DCPROMO later or use the file for a Core server promotion.
The following Screencast demonstrates the installation of a new Windows Server 2008 forest.

How to Perform Metadata Cleanup

by admin

There are situations when you have to perform Metadata cleanup in Active Directory. Typical examples when you have to perform Metadata cleanup are:

  • Delete an extinct Domain Controller metadata
  • There are no domain controllers currently available in the parent domain when you try to demote the last domain controller in an immediate child domain.
  • Failed DCPROMO – Active Directory Installation Wizard can not complete because there is a name resolution, authentication,replication engine, or Active Directory object dependency.
  • Exceeded Default Tombstone Lifetime (60 days) – a domain controller has not replicated incoming Active Directory changes in Tombstone Lifetime.
  • Demote and promote back a Domain Controller

In this Step-by-Step Screencast, we will demonstrate how to perform metadata cleanup. We will walk you trough the necessary changes in Active Directory, DNS server configuration and Sites-and Services Snap-in.
