I just wanted to pause studying for a minute to tell you "Thank you for providing this Server 2012 course"! I am taking the first exam, this Tuesday, for the 70-410 and your videos have been helping me grasp the details needed to operate Server 2012. I really appreciate your coherence, since my CBT nuggets class has been pounding a 100 details into a condensed 45 minute, per topic, videos. You've really helped me grasp the principles and feel capable of learning the finite details with each topic on my first exam. Thanks a million, Eli!
Don't worry about that the "experts" are going to say, you made it very clear that this is an "introduction" for us beginners, and it was a totally perfect and absolutely understandable introduction to DNS. This is the first time I try to learn the basics of DNS and I this is exactly what I was looking for, no need to look any further for what I was trying to accomplish a big THANK YOU!!!.
In Brazil now but has been with you since I started my IT career back in Los Angeles and I must say that I love the simplicity of your explanations. You became the "way to go" whenever I need someone else to understand something IT related. Thanks a whole.
As a new IT guy who recently crossed over from Telecom, I have been watching your videos to get familiar with the various technologies, lingo, etc. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge in a way I can easily comprehend and retain!
Eli, I have never ever seen in my life like you who teaches others in a very clear and understandable manner whatever he has. God bless you and your family abundantly.
Eli,Thanks for the Intro classes. I'm getting started learning to configure servers and may be starting a new job that requires some basic knowledge with Server 2012. I bought my first book MCSA 70-410 by Don Poulton and is very deep. So I really appreciate the approach you have in taking nothing for granted to help start with a firm foundation in which to build upon.Thanks!
Thank you Eli! I am grateful for your videos. Some of us techs work on the simpler side of things. Most of my small business clients don't use servers. As such, my knowledge on some topics is sometimes a bit limited, or forgotten. Simple videos like this are terrifically helpful.
You are a very skilled teacher, I learnt more through your videos than I did from any instructor I've every had. Thank you sooooo much for doing this. :)
Your voice soothes my soul like the sound of a gentle waterfall. Every time I start one of your videos and you introduce yourself, I know that everything is going to be alright.
This introduction makes my hype to learn more on your video. You make it clear and slow that any person who will watch the video will learn. Thank you for sharing such knowledge and help others to learn from you.
Eli you the very man, screw those people that say's you are messing up; because of you I now have the understanding and how to do some stuff on Microsoft server 2012. Thank you for this video it helps.
These videos are awesome. Very easy to follow and very informational. I'm going through the exams for my MCSE Desktop Infrastructure and this is helping a lot. Thanks!
Geepers. Wish I had found Elis series of lectures on Win 2012 , Domain Controllers, and DNS earlier. Good stuff, and yes that external DHCP server was a problem. Thanks.
Awesome. Had a server with the wrong IP address in DNS so ping pointed me to the wrong place. This quickly showed me where to make that change. Thanks!
I installed AD back in thius video: 0WyBxwJD_c0 You can have DNS without AD, but not the other way around. BUT Windows DNS can be a pain in the butt if you're using it to administer clients that are not members of the domain...
OMG. I've been stumped for a good hour now trying to get a client to resolve a host name but couldn't. Restarted the DNS service (10:57) and BOOM! I'm resolving ipv4 addresses all night long. Thanks a lot.
Thanks Eli, your classes are great. Been literally just learning by trial n error in an enterprise environment. Having a lot "ahh that makes sense" moments.
One should be required to convey a reason behind down-votes and have them shown in a separate tab. I would love to know why this guy has 17 down-votes when all his information is pertinent and accurate.
I've come to the conclusion inserts these downvotes by themselves. Because they're big CRAP videos like VEVO music videos get downvotes obviously. If millions of small channels would have virtually no downvotes it might look bad for the shareholders who make youtube money.
I really love this guy, almost all days i cant wait to go home and seat at my computer to watch his videos, i learned a lot with him already, i really apreciate his effort to teach us, i would pay for sure to be one of his students. Thanks Eli the Computer Guy
hi, thanks for the videos. But where is the next video on the DNS server configuration before "Adding windows computers to windows server 2012 domain". 2- When I tried to join a windows 7 comp to the domain, it says "an active directory domain controller for the domain could not be contacted". any idea???
Hey, looks like you have the same setup I've where you set up your lab on VMware. Are you using VMware workstation? If so, can you please let me know if you followed along the DHCP video set up. Were your client able to resolve an IP from your DHCP server? mine never worked. I've spent too much time trying to figure it out.
hello eli look I think your videos are very very important though I think for our convenience is to follow your videos step by step from low to high etc its for you to name them by numbers so we could follow them by order thanks so much and sorry if its hard for you
Yes! Every other tutorial or document talks like I am already supposed to know how everything works. I just need a basic DNS and active directory for testing with a couple VMs and nobody will give a succient 1,2,3,4 etc step tutorial on how to do that.
whats up eli? great job on this Win2012 Server track. i'm not much of a windows guy and it's been a while since i messed with windows domains, AD, and all that. these videos help me refresh my memory pretty good. anyway, so i want to set up my AD, but i know i need to set up DNS first. just wondering... will you be doing a video to actually set up and configure DNS in Win2012? or do you already have one and i missed it?
Mr. Eli. i have a question here... i want to ask, i have windows server installed and i want to configure it as the AD DS... but when i install and promote the AD to a domain i got this event id 4013 "The DNS server is waiting for Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) to signal that the initial synchronization of the directory has been completed. The DNS server service cannot start until the initial synchronization is complete because critical DNS data might not yet be replicated onto this domain controller. If events in the AD DS event log indicate that there is a problem with DNS name resolution, consider adding the IP address of another DNS server for this domain to the DNS server list in the Internet Protocol properties of this computer. This event will be logged every two minutes until AD DS has signaled that the initial synchronization has successfully completed." How do i fix that... This is my ip static on my network adapter ip add 10.10.10.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 primary dns 10.10.10.1 #is there a problem if i use its own ip to be the primary ip dns server? Sorry for my english,i'm new.
HI Can you please tell me how to resolve "RFC 2136 specifies secure and unauthenticated Dynamic DNS Updates to the DNS tables on a DNS server. Typically, popular DNS servers like Bind or Microsoft DNS servers do not allow unauthenticated Dynamic DNS updates by default. However, as pointed out by CVE-1999-0184, Bind when compiled with the -DALLOW_UPDATES definition, does allow insecure updates. So does the Microsoft DNS Server if the ""Allow Dynamic Updates"" setting is set to ""Yes"" instead of ""Only Secure Updates"". Dynamic updates are used a lot these days, especially in the Microsoft Windows Active Directory environment, to locate services like Domain Controllers and Kerberos through the SRV RRs (Service Locator Resource Records). Thus, a misconfigured DNS server that allows insecure Dynamic DNS updates is quite likely. Through this test, the scanner could add ""qfake"" hostname with an IP address of ""1.1.1.1"" to the target DNS server's DNS tables. This entry has a TTL (time to live) of 1 day and is fairly harmless in itself."
@Eli, Great movies I have to say. I recently made a career move from being a Chef! I recently passed my microsoft OS exam. Now, I've been busy with Networking, security and server MTA's, just to get my basic information, so I could start with the 70-410-411 & 412 to get my MCSA, Now. I have been doing this now for a few weeks and I find these video's extreemly helpful, since I'm a BIG dyslectic with reading in my own language (Dutch) and also English... anyway! I was wondering since all 70-410-411-412 exams (mcsa) are server 2012 R2, will I be a lot of knowledge short since these video's are server 2012?? Do you have any extra tips to pass these exams? I study most of the time at home. I do have books and making labs on my laptop with VM's Once again, Cheers!
Thanks for the good videos Eli. I like how you present the information in a way that's very easy to understand for a beginner. I've added a DNS record in my domains forward lookup zone but it doesn't seem to be taking effect. From my server it's pinging a different address to what I set in the record and when I try ping from a different computer on my network, I get the message; 'Ping request could not find host gw01. Please check the name and try again'. Is there another step that's supposed to save the changes or activate it? I am using Windows Server 2016 if that matters. I haven't yet configured active directory. Also I'm surprised you didn't explain in this video how to configure the DNS server to dynamically update the records, from the DHCP server for example.
Hi Eli the Computer Guy, I want to say thank you because you have taught me topics, I want to jump into Windows server and you mention DNS is the last component of it. In this case where would be a good topic to start for windows server? Active Directory?
Eli I have been job hunting for a little while now and a lot of places seem to want both Windows and Linux based knowledge, to what extent do companies use Linux. I don't want to spend weeks learning how to administer Linux to find out that the market is (what I thought) predominantly Windows. Any suggestions?
Eli, Thanks for the video tutorials. Very helpful and I appreciate it. Question: Would it be better to set up the DNS forwarders that my ISP uses on the Windows Server DNS service or just leave it up to the router when clients need something? I have the primary DNS set to the server itself and the router as the secondary.
Can you please do a video on the common case where a company sets there AD domain name to their website domain name but there website is hosted on an external server on the web so DNS will need to be setup so users can access the company website from inside the company LAN.
so if I wanted my whole network to use the server to get internet I would point all of the their DNS to the DC and set an A record to my ISP dns? and im told the server should point to itself. 2nd question would be what about a secondary DNS ip where does that go?
i am facing voice breakage using softphone (vonage service configured)...i am using ciberoam firewall and also setup the windows server 2008r2.. i have already check the all dns setting in firewall and server as well ...can you help me to resolve this issue...
You are better than 99% of the teachers I ever had.
Its the name, Eli is just an easy going name.

I've been working with DNS .. and pretty much everything else .. for decades. This is a very good introduction+. I enjoyed it. Nice job!
You are the only teacher i enjoy watching!

Great video! In Windows Server 2019 you can view Global DNS logs via Event Viewer > Applications and Services Logs > DNS Server
Eli, you made my IT Administration. Don't know how to thank you enough. Live long and stay healthy.
Thank you Eli! I am grateful for your videos. Some of us techs work on the simpler side of things. Most of my small business clients don't use servers. As such, my knowledge on some topics is sometimes a bit limited, or forgotten. Simple videos like this are terrifically helpful.
Forget these geeks, ELI your doing a excellent job keep doing your thing... You helping thousands of techs believe me i'am one.
You are a very skilled teacher, I learnt more through your videos than I did from any instructor I've every had.
Thank you sooooo much for doing this. :)
You are the best Eli I like the way you teach you say the same thing atleast twice so that people understand.
As an ISS student, I am a big fan of your channel. Really love your way of teaching.
thank you i have learn many many things from the ELI , i wish you long live and success in your life
This class is the best, so much better than the book. Thanks Eli for keeping the material simple for beginner like myself.
Man, there's nothing like an Eli class on a Saturday morning enjoying a cold brew.
These videos are better than taking a networking course! Thanks for doing these videos Eli, very helpful.
Your voice soothes my soul like the sound of a gentle waterfall. Every time I start one of your videos and you introduce yourself, I know that everything is going to be alright.
This introduction makes my hype to learn more on your video. You make it clear and slow that any person who will watch the video will learn. Thank you for sharing such knowledge and help others to learn from you.
I agree with David. All the other teachers on RUclips I can't even understand. You're great! Thanks Eli :)
Eli you the very man, screw those people that say's you are messing up; because of you I now have the understanding and how to do some stuff on Microsoft server 2012. Thank you for this video it helps.
very professional teacher. clean language and presentation. i understand it clearly even when i play it at 2X speed
These videos are awesome. Very easy to follow and very informational. I'm going through the exams for my MCSE Desktop Infrastructure and this is helping a lot. Thanks!
New to MS server but thank you for explaining plain and simple. A great approach to learning new skills.
Geepers. Wish I had found Elis series of lectures on Win 2012 , Domain Controllers, and DNS earlier. Good stuff, and yes that external DHCP server was a problem. Thanks.
Who the hell is telling the Great ELI he is messing up. You are sure helping me thank you .
Thanks alot Eli... U teach each n every topic in such an easy way.... I have never enjoyed learning this much..
Great tutorials. I am blessed to have you.
Awesome. Had a server with the wrong IP address in DNS so ping pointed me to the wrong place. This quickly showed me where to make that change. Thanks!
I installed AD back in thius video: 0WyBxwJD_c0
You can have DNS without AD, but not the other way around. BUT Windows DNS can be a pain in the butt if you're using it to administer clients that are not members of the domain...
Eli the Computer Guy is in a car accident
I enjoyed this class today June 3, 2013 - refreshing my outdated knowledge!
Thank you for sharing this clear your knowledge. Your videos are much superior than any other instructor
LOL. Wow man, you are just the best teacher I ever had.
You really understand the concept of teaching. Thanks Eli :)
40 thumbs down? What is wrong with You people? This is the best tutorial ever.
You are best teacher I ever had. I enjoy to watch your session.
OMG. I've been stumped for a good hour now trying to get a client to resolve a host name but couldn't. Restarted the DNS service (10:57) and BOOM! I'm resolving ipv4 addresses all night long. Thanks a lot.
Check out this video: dmQnJRXbzEk
Port Forwarding is done on the Router, not on the actual computer...
the word thank you is not enough. may God just bless you abundantly
Thanks Eli, your classes are great. Been literally just learning by trial n error in an enterprise environment. Having a lot "ahh that makes sense" moments.
So glad I stumbled across your channel. Keep up the GREAT work, Eli.
One should be required to convey a reason behind down-votes and have them shown in a separate tab. I would love to know why this guy has 17 down-votes when all his information is pertinent and accurate.

Another great video, great explanation without all the extra bits that are not necessary at this level.
I don't know what I feel. It's annoying when you pronounce words really clear, but it really helps a lot! :S Thanks for the classes :)
I really love this guy, almost all days i cant wait to go home and seat at my computer to watch his videos, i learned a lot with him already, i really apreciate his effort to teach us, i would pay for sure to be one of his students. Thanks Eli the Computer Guy
simplicity makes it beautiful...nice one Eli...u'r so kind
Hi Ali the computer guy. This chandra the Indian guy. Love your all the classes🤗🤗
I like the colour of your T-shirt, the decoration of the class and your gesture! hahaha...
Really good class on the intro to DNS. I have learned quite a bit in a very short time . Thank you
Clearly presented and instructive video on Windows servers 👍👏
hi, thanks for the videos. But where is the next video on the DNS server configuration before "Adding windows computers to windows server 2012 domain". 2- When I tried to join a windows 7 comp to the domain, it says "an active directory domain controller for the domain could not be contacted". any idea???
I had to manually add a reverse lookup PTR to let client computers detect and join the domain. Is this normal?
Hey, looks like you have the same setup I've where you set up your lab on VMware. Are you using VMware workstation? If so, can you please let me know if you followed along the DHCP video set up. Were your client able to resolve an IP from your DHCP server? mine never worked. I've spent too much time trying to figure it out.
hello eli look I think your videos are very very important though I think for our convenience is to follow your videos step by step from low to high etc its for you to name them by numbers so we could follow them by order thanks so much and sorry if its hard for you
Hi,
If you follow the playlist "Windows server 2012" it will be in perfect order.
Really good introduction video tutorial for entry level learner, awesome!
just start watching your video.
it was really easy to understand and i am able to use it at work too.
thank you.
keep it coming.
very good, waiting for my unleashed book to arraive from amazone. Will be here on saturday.. Looking forward to new classes.
Yes! Every other tutorial or document talks like I am already supposed to know how everything works. I just need a basic DNS and active directory for testing with a couple VMs and nobody will give a succient 1,2,3,4 etc step tutorial on how to do that.
Eli you are a great teacher. thank you for taking your time to teach us. i love all of your lessons.
Thanks a lot for the video... It's great!
Greetings from Mexico
whats up eli? great job on this Win2012 Server track. i'm not much of a windows guy and it's been a while since i messed with windows domains, AD, and all that. these videos help me refresh my memory pretty good.
anyway, so i want to set up my AD, but i know i need to set up DNS first. just wondering... will you be doing a video to actually set up and configure DNS in Win2012? or do you already have one and i missed it?
Eli do you remember what was the green book you made reference on your video ?
You are amazing, thank you from the bottom of my heart
Thanks Shaun Fielding for your response.I had not enabled IP V6.
If any ideas please post .........
.Thanks in advance..
Thank you for reaching us.

Thanks Eli for these videos, you actually help me a lot understanding tons of stuff that I'm interesting in.
Once again Thanks for wonderful Videos

Well done Eli...you are doing a great job!

I don't want to spend weeks learning how to administer Linux to find out that the market is (what I thought) predominantly Windows. Any suggestions?
Eli,

Question: Would it be better to set up the DNS forwarders that my ISP uses on the Windows Server DNS service or just leave it up to the router when clients need something? I have the primary DNS set to the server itself and the router as the secondary.
Thank you very much,I really enjoyed as well as learned more...
Thy for this simple explanation! Greetings from Germany!
Thank you. I learned everything I need, most important how to add the DNS entry. Your videos are on point...
does a read-only domain controller (RODC) appear as "Name Server" or "Host(A)" in DNS?
So we`re in 2018 now, do we still get a more sophisticated video on how much deeper and further we can go with using DNS?
Yeah, do a search, there are many
Can you please do a video on the common case where a company sets there AD domain name to their website domain name but there website is hosted on an external server on the web so DNS will need to be setup so users can access the company website from inside the company LAN.
Hi Eli, thank you very much for you classes 😊
Really good videos i am learning it from his videos. Thank you
Thanks for sharing your knowledge Eli.
do you have another video as well advanced one for the same topic please?
so if I wanted my whole network to use the server to get internet I would point all of the their DNS to the DC and set an A record to my ISP dns? and im told the server should point to itself. 2nd question would be what about a secondary DNS ip where does that go?
Always great videos Eli!
Thanks so much for doing these videos! I need to brush up on some of this stuff and these videos are wonderful!!!
Love you Eli. You've helped people alot :)
Eli, I why is my DNS not activated...same thing goes for my DHCP and AD DS?
Your videos have been a great help to me. Thank you.
i am facing voice breakage using softphone (vonage service configured)...i am using ciberoam firewall and also setup the windows server 2008r2.. i have already check the all dns setting in firewall and server as well ...can you help me to resolve this issue...
best teacher ever!!!
