Sorry for being daft.. i was checking in BUILTIN options instead of DC's... will catch you in next videos :) highly appreciated for posting such priceless stuff for free.
This is an excellent tutorial. I used your website for my training and i passed my 70-680 exam. Thank you very much. More grease to your elbow. Well done.
Thank you for the wonderful informative video(s). I've been working in IT for a few years now, and your videos helped me freshen up on the AD fundamentals, and learn a lot of new things, too!
Some functions require a global catalog server in order to operate. For example finding a forest wide operational master role will require a GC. The GC contains a partial replicate of all objects in the forest. It does not have separate index for each domain. When doing a search you could ask for all objects in one domain and this would give you a domain wide search. If you have not GC's on your network certain operations will fail even in a single domain single forest environment.
You should have a GC available when you log in just in case. In theory if replication has not occurred it should allow them to login. However, once replication has occur it is going to know that the user is a member of universal group and require access to a GC to work out what groups that user is a member of. However, depending on how they log in the user may require access to a Domain Controller anyway, for example they login using a UPN.
For 200 users I would recommend a Global Catalog. A global Catalog is also used for searches. If you are using a single domain single forest the replication should be small since a lot of replication will happen between partitions on the same Domain Controller. See the video Active Directory Partitions to see how this works. If you have multi domains I still think it is worth trying. AD replication is quite efficient so many not cause to much load on the lines unless the company is really large.
Really good quality videos. Keep them coming Lol. I have been banging my head reading Microsoft Press Books for about two months now. Just a few days watching your videos I feel like I learn more from your videos than the book. Your detailed and analytic approach to explaing concepts is amazing. YOU MAKE IT LOOK EASY :)
If it is a new install is most like there are no computers in your domain. If you only have domain controllers the computer account for the domain controllers will be under domain controllers. When you prompted a server to a domain controller the computer account for the server is moved from computers to domain controllers.
You have the best set of training videos on Active Directory. Thank you so much for them. I have a question that you probably answered in the video, but was not very clear to me. If I have a single forest with a single domain with 2 DCs, why do I need to make them GC? In such an architecture, how does the system differentiate Forest wide searches to domain wide searches?
Hi I have been watching your free training and just want to ask if it is still relevant to a 2012 or 2016 windows server? Thank you for the free training.
The video MCITP 70-640: Active Directory Partitions explains how all these works. Essentially the Global Catalog is a subset of the information stored in the domain partition.
Thanks a lot. For the last part of the video about "Reasons to not deploy GC", what about in multi-domain structure, it is adviseble to not place GC together Infrastructure master.
Hi, I had a clean copy of Server 2008 R2 Enterprise installed on the VMware machine and was follow you allong the series.... When i clicked on AD Users & Computers and found my Domain there and when i click on Computers in my domain i can not see any computer listed... What can be the reason? THANKS
i attended interview yesterday. he asked me What is Global Catalog? & What is use of Global catalog? i don't know. so i saw your video but still i didn't understand wht is GC?
The global catalog is a distributed data repository that contains a searchable, partial representation of every object in every domain in a multidomain Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) forest. The global catalog is stored on domain controllers that have been designated as global catalog servers and is distributed through multimaster replication. Searches that are directed to the global catalog are faster because they do not involve referrals to different domain controllers.
I love how you teach. Your voice is very clear and you help me understand more when you add diagrams.
Thank you.
+wari francis Thanks, we're always happy to hear when someone finds our videos helpful

The videos were great. it's easy to understand and well defined using the diagrams. Thanx for all ur effort to provide such training to everyone.
+Arun Mallick You're very welcome. We're happy you found our videos useful.
Thanks for pointed that out. We will get the video changed.
even a non-tech guy like me can understand clearly, thank you very much.
Your videos helped me a lot. Keep up your good work. :)

Tremendous effort Thanks for making it that simple and clearify
Shubham Sharma Thanks very much. Glad you found the video helpful
Hi I have been watching your free training and just want to ask if it is still relevant to a 2012 or 2016 windows server? Thank you for the free training.
so true and better than "experienced" teachers rambling on...
Thanks for the comment. Don't worry, more videos are on the way.
Thanks very much. I will pass you comment onto the voice talent.
We use have questions, but we don't release them any more. The newer videos have pdf's however.
love da way you teaching bless u
Very useful and understandable video. Thank you
You're most welcome. Thanks for your great feedback!

Amazing teaching...
Thank you!
We do not currently have any training for CompTia. We do not have any plan in the future to do any videos on CompTia. Sorry.
Thanks for the comment. More videos on the way.
You are the best, incredible!
Thanks!
Many Thanks for this wonderful work.
Thanks a lot.
For the last part of the video about "Reasons to not deploy GC", what about in multi-domain structure, it is adviseble to not place GC together Infrastructure master.
Just to clarify, are you asking why in multi-domain structures is it not advised to put GC on the Infrastructure Master?
Thanks a lot, your videos are really helpful.
Thanks for watching.
Thank you for all your videos. :D
No problem at all. Thanks for watching.
Thanks.. You are a star
You are doing a great job. Please keep it up☺
Thank you very much!
So is global catalog a sever role, a feature or something else? What’s the difference between global catalog and Infrastructure role?
Do you do any Comptia Training? Possibly Server+?
many thanks for your effort sir.
is there any way to see the information inside Global Catalog.
Thanks for the Video, very good presentation, . A Question , Should the GC port be 3268 instead of 3267?.
+Shajeer K You are correct, the default port is 3268. Thanks!
Very nice .........Thx for uploading the video
Thanku so much, very helpful still this date. :)
Thanks very much.
Your videos are really great, can you also have an exchange server tutorials?
Cris John Sorry, we do not have any videos on Exchange.
thank you very much its very helpful
No problem at all, thanks for watching.
Hi, I had a clean copy of Server 2008 R2 Enterprise installed on the VMware machine and was follow you allong the series.... When i clicked on AD Users & Computers and found my Domain there and when i click on Computers in my domain i can not see any computer listed... What can be the reason?
THANKS
You're excellent!!!!
Thank you!
At 9.26 in this video, the speaker is saying IT free training however the CC shows TTfree training..please correct it
Thanks for pointing that out. I have changed the caption file.
Wooww.. very good V D O.. explained very well.. keep uploading new videos... :) cheerss..
itfreetraining.com thank you!
+Billy Wilson Arante You're very welcome and thank you for watching.
Awesome ....
Good!
No thank you for watching.
@mstroy0927 Thanks.
...Due to HighCostTraining failure in the market place... LuLz!
You are using a gr8 thing in these videos which is "giving information about next video"
Nice
:-)
Thank you.
I don't understand..
What don't you understand? Feel free to ask any questions.
i attended interview yesterday. he asked me
What is Global Catalog? & What is use of Global catalog? i don't know. so i saw your video but still i didn't understand wht is GC?

Thank you..
You're most welcome!
GC port number is 3268....I guess!!!!
+नाविन्य आंब्रे You are correct.
Sir, can you make videos on Vmware and ESXi....thanks
Thanks very much.
Thanks very much.
