Basic Setup

As with any new box, the first step involves properly cabling the computer to the LAN and starting it up. When it started it prompted me for a new Administrator password, which I set, and I finished the initial setup with the sconfig tool.

Using the sconfig tool I was able to verify the date and time, make sure automatic updates were turned off, set the hostname to fs01-elizabeth, and set the ip information, which is as follows:

  • IP address: 10.0.5.8
  • Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
  • DHCP Enabled: False
  • Default Gateway: 10.0.5.2
  • DNS Server: 10.0.5.6

Domain Join

Next I was able to join the computer to the domain using sconfig, since there was a domain option in there. I joined it to elizabeth.local and used my domain admin's username and password to finish the join. The box then rebooted.

After the reboot was finished I logged in with my domain admin credentials and verified that all of the information had stayed the same.
