For my small company i want to setup a domain controller
My problem is that i tried already doing it my self ,but i might be missing something.
But when i try to add computers to the DC , it constantly fails.
what i get is:
The following error occurred when DNS was queried for the service location (SRV)
esource record used to locate an Active Directory Domain Controller (AD DC) for domain
"dc.mycompany.com":
The error was: "DNS name does not exist."
(error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR)
The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.dc.mycompany.com
EDIT: Following the comments below. i'm doing it for research purposes to understand what will work for my company and what will be the end solution that will be suggested. i have managed many AD before, but i have never tried to do it with some of my users being able to access it from the internet. I'm also using this method to test VPN providers like F5 & CheckPoint to go along with this solution. As for EC2 & AWS As it easier to experiment with that environment rather than using actual servers inside my company.
Any help will be much appreciated.
{Please don't leave comment like don't do it.}
Ignoring how unbelievably insecure this idea is going to be...
I created a subdomain DNS record to direct dc.mycompany.com to the static IP (Using GoDaddy).
OK, but what about the rest of the zone? As the error states, it's looking for a SRV record. This likely doesn't exist in your public zone hosted with GoDaddy.
Obligatory: Why on earth are you trying to do this? What's wrong with implementing something like a DirectAccess VPN?
