# Lab startup
|
|
|
|
Goal: clone the project, adapt its configuration, then start the domain
|
|
controller. Clients (PC01 and linux01) will be started later in the journey.
|
|
|
|
## Get the project
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone <repo-url> lab_AD_Complet
|
|
cd lab_AD_Complet
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Adapt the configuration
|
|
|
|
`.env.example` lists every variable (names, passwords, VM resources). Copy it:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
At minimum, change:
|
|
|
|
- `AD_DOMAIN` and `AD_DOMAIN_NETBIOS` if you want something else than `corp.lab`
|
|
- `AD_ADMIN_PASSWORD`: must match the default AD policy (10+ chars, uppercase,
|
|
lowercase, digit, special)
|
|
|
|
Other variables (RAM, CPU, ports) can stay as-is.
|
|
|
|
## Check prerequisites
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./scripts/check-prereqs.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Fix any `[FAIL]` before continuing.
|
|
|
|
## Start the domain controller
|
|
|
|
`docker-compose.yml` defines three services:
|
|
|
|
- `dc01`: Windows Server (domain controller)
|
|
- `pc01`: Windows 11 (client)
|
|
- `linux01`: Debian 12 (client)
|
|
|
|
For now, only `dc01`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docker compose up -d dc01
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `dockurr/windows` image downloads (~1 GB), then fetches the Windows Server
|
|
ISO and runs an unattended install. Depending on your connection, allow 20 to
|
|
45 minutes.
|
|
|
|
## Track progress
|
|
|
|
- Logs: `docker compose logs -f dc01`
|
|
- Web console: [http://localhost:8006](http://localhost:8006)
|
|
|
|
## Accessing DC01
|
|
|
|
Once Windows is up:
|
|
|
|
- Web: http://localhost:8006 (slow, unreliable clipboard)
|
|
- RDP: `./scripts/rdp-dc.sh` (recommended)
|
|
|
|
Default credentials for first login:
|
|
|
|
- User: `Administrator`
|
|
- Password: value of `AD_ADMIN_PASSWORD` in your `.env`
|
|
|
|
## Next
|
|
|
|
The server is installed but not yet a DC. Promotion happens in
|
|
`02-dc-promotion.md`.
