AD/OU structure for single server - Domain Contoller/Terminal Serv

January 26, 2008

I'm setting up my first server in order to offer Terminal Services over an

SSL/VPN. I can't seem to find any articles on AD/OU structures that I can use

in this scenerio. I have one server, which will be serving a very small group

of people for starters (< 5). Almost all will be connecting over the VPN. The

server will be the Terminal Server, Terminal License Server and the Domain

Contoller as it is the one and only server in the Domain.

Can you help me or point me to where I can get the info?

Thank you.

It's not recommended to use a DC as terminal server. If you want to do it,

use GPO's to lockdown the server and settings. If the server is a DC, it will

be placed in the Domain Controllers OU. Put a loopback policy on this OU and

the necessary GPO's for the lockdown.
