I am preparing for my mcse and wanted to install and work around windows 2003 server, i have managed to install windows 2003 server and 2 windows 2000 as guests OS in my winXP host machine. Have also raised the server as the domain controller and enabled dhcp, dns. created users, computers etc in active directory.
I have used the Shared Networking (NAT) setting for all three guest operating systems. the NAT provides the ip address for all 3 pcs, however Im Unable to join the 2 windows 2000 machines to the domain. Have manually configured DNS for the 2 pcs to point to the server ip address.
2k3 server- Shared network NAT enabled
– MS loop back adapter enabled
other 2 pcs use Shared Networking (NAT).
I dont want my HOST pc to be connected to this network in anyway. I know there should be a simple way to do this. Please can anyone tell how to configure the network settings , so that i can have a domain running 2 pcs and 1 server using ms virtual pc????
