LAB: INSTALL NT SERVER
This section requires you to work in groups using two computers. One computer will serve as a Primary Domain Controller, the other dual booting as a Windows NT Workstation and Backup Domain Controller.

It is important that you perform the steps in the suggested order. Some steps are very dependent upon the earlier steps having been successfully completed.

LAB1: INSTALL NT SERVER [PDC]
Work in pairs, and install the PDC first. You will need two computers, preferably side by side. You will be performing a network install. Please consider defining the following information before continuing.

Most of the computers have been set up already, and are configured as follows

Beware: You are going to install Windows NT Server onto a computer which has operating systems already installed. The disk is already partitioned. Be very careful you follow the instructions, and if unsure, ASK.

YOU WILL INSTALL WINDOWS NT SERVER ONTO THE EXISTING NTFS PARTITION [DRIVE D:]

Step 1: Install the Primary Domain Controller

1. Boot the existing computer under Windows NT W/S
2. Logon to the local computer using the account provided by your supervisor
3. Connect to the following share-point
   \\ICE\nt4srv
4. Run the setup program winnt32.exe using the /bx option
   [Start->Run->\\ice\nt4srv\i386\winnt32.exe /Bx]

   The following window is displayed
   
   This allows you to specify the location of the source files for the installation process.
   

5. Press CONTINUE

   The following window is then displayed
   
   This indicates that the files are being copied onto the local hard drive. Because the /B option was specified, no boot disks are created.

6. Click on the RESTART COMPUTER button to restart the computer
   The computer will restart, and display a Welcome to Setup window.
7. Press ENTER to continue the setup process
   The setup process looks for installed boot devices like IDE and SCSI adapters. It should display a list similar to that below [note that it might differ on your PC],

8. The License Agreement dialog box is now displayed. Press PGDN till you reach the bottom of the agreement, then press F8 to continue.
9. The setup process now looks for previously installed versions of Windows NT. Because NT Workstation is already installed on our PC, it should display a message similar to that below

   		Found in D:\WINNT "Windows NT Workstation Version 4.00"
   

   At this point, we are offered a choice of cancel, upgrade, or NEW install.

10. Press N to select a new install at a different location
    Windows Setup will now display a list of the hardware and software components detected, highlighting with the message "The above list matches my computer"
11. Press ENTER to continue
    A list of existing partitions and file systems is now displayed.
12. Select drive D: as the install partition
    The setup program now displays options related to whether or not to overwrite the current file systems.
13. Select "Leave the current file system intact" then press ENTER to continue
    Setup now asks for an install directory.
14. Specify \NT4SRV as the install directory, then press ENTER to continue
    Setup asks to perform an examination of the hard disk drive
15. Press ENTER to continue
    Setup performs an examination of the drive and copies the files to the hard disk [press ESC if you get an error message "copying file ir32_32.dll"]
16. Once the files have been copied, press ENTER to restart the computer.
