I am only five minutes in and I can confidently say that you are one of the most elegant instructors I have seen on KZfaq.

I've worked in IT for over 15 years but having had a career break I needed a quick refresh on AD&GP. Could not have found a better video. Straight to the point, well narrated, well paced and slim enough to cover the main points you need to know. Highly recommended video.

At 28, I have just started my IT career. I was able to understand the basics of ADDS. Thank you! I will go through to other videos every night.

I needed to know enough of AD to be able to answer some interview questions, as I have not used it since 2005... I have been a tech for about 30 yrs. I forget things that I don't use. This Video Tut. is awesome! Great job in explaining, and your vocab is perfect. Thank you Kevin.

I've never seen any instructors or teachers who can simplify a task. amazing job.

This has been one of the best videos I've found on KZfaq. You've explained the how and the why in a way I can easily understand. I'll be signing up for more of your courses on payday as there is much more I need to learn. Thank you for this video.

i am amazed how well this tutorial is. No bs, no talking in vain, just straight to the point and then most importantly, showing everything in practical use. Well done. I ll be sure to share this video to my peers if they have trouble understanding DC

This video is awesome! Your explanation are simple, straightforward and easy to understand! Thank you so much Kevin!

Kevin I have completed your Udemy course on Active Directory 2016 around two years back and since then I became your fan. Your teaching method is simple, clear and highly informative.

Awesome explanation, Kevin. My understanding of Domain Controller, Active Directory services is crystal clear now. Very much appreciated. Thanks much.

This is an excellent video. I've been struggling to comprehend the whole AD env for a while now, and this video helped me break that line

I know this is an older video, but....Wow, I have been trying to understand and learn active directory for weeks , mainly to see if my existing commercial network would benefit from it. I have watched tons of videos and still did not really understand . I was about to move on and forget about it when I found this video. Within 5 minutes I fully understood its purpose and realized what it could do for my business network and my sanity! Thanks so much for taking the time to put this video out! I will most definitely check out your other classes on Udemy!!!

Great video explaining Active Directory and group policy. Perfect for someone pursuing a career in IT. Thanks. Pls ignore my Personal notes: Active directory (AD) = Role in server. Once AD installed system becomes a "Domain Controller". Benefit of AD = Centralized Administration. Can create policies. Can manage all users and computers. No need to be in front of physical PC to do things such as, reset PW or Create user accounts. Should have at least 2 Domain controllers. AD replicates to other Domain controllers.

This is the best Group Policy/AD tutorial i've seen on youtube! I subscribed!

Oh man... what an amazing video. 1 hour, but straight to the point, and you leave understanding everything. Great work.

Woah mate! I don't know if this is the best tutorial about AD but this is very helpful. Our school has been discussing this step by step for almost a week or two while i easily learned the basics from this video for just 51 minutes. Thanks bro!

The best explanation i have ever seen in my life about AD DC in Window server 2016. Thank you SIR.

Great tutorial! so far the best one I've seen on KZfaq!

Kevin, thank you for a great overview of Active Directory and Group Policy. I don't have an official IT education and I am trying to break into that field. Every job requires this experience. I have done a lot of this on the client-side but not on the server. Thank you for the wealth of information. I hope I can find time to take some of your courses. If you explain things as clear in those courses as you did here they will be a home run. Cheers!

This is the first tutorial out of 15 that has actually got me all the way through setting up AD. Thank you so much, Kevin!!

I have been in IT for five months and this tutorial just helped me link so many dots!!! I am def buying your other courses on Udemy!

First, I want to thank you Mr.Kevin so much for the great explanation🙏💫 Second, If someone doesn't get why we have the best practice of "At least two domain controllers" as he said in "the summary part" It is because we want the solution to be redundant and fault-tolerant. Thus, if one domain controller fails or becomes unreachable, other domain controllers can continue to provide the service. So by that, we achieved multiple benefits such as: 1- Redundancy 2- Replication 3- Load distribution 4- Geographical distribution

This was awesome! Very clear, direct and easy to follow along.

One of the best AD&GP training course!!! I really appreciate you Sir!!!!

What a great quality! You don't even need more than 3 minutes of watching to recognize that this video has a very high quality and deserve a like. Great job!

This was an interesting watch. I feel as though I am a qualified system administrator after watching your video. Definitely getting a like and subscription for being so simple and clear.

You are one of the greatest teacher on the Planet ! Period........

What a tutorial, straight forward , well explained and fully detailed. Thank you Kevin.

starting in my job and not knowing anything about active directory this puts things into a crstyal clear picture of why active directory is needed within the first 5 mins. Thank you!!!

I just started this IT class and been watching this video over and over. I just love it, Very under standing. Thank you very much

This is the best video on Active Directory I’ve seen anywhere so far. All concepts explained clearly and the analogies make it much easier the grasp these concepts. 🙏 thank you sir

Oh My God!! I am at a loss for appreciative words to express my deep appreciation for this informative video. Quickly, I am testing for a verbal interview for my Tech II position (currently am a Technical Support Tech I) and wanted to refresh that which I know and enlighten myself of things I have only heard about in our weekly meetings and would help me prepare for my oral exam. The way to explain everything and show examples, simplistically, is truly amazing and extremely helpful. If I pass this test, I will definitely become a member of at least one of your courses in order to become a more knowledgeable and valued next tier tech...particularly in relation to networking and AD. Thanks so much again!! (Huie-California)

I'm very glad to have stumbled upon this video! I wasted no time in LIKEing and SUBSCRIBing. I now have a much better understanding of Group Policies (among other things) and it's quite refreshing to find an online instructor without a ridiculously thick accent and a natural teaching pace.

Thank you very much for a very incisive tutorial. Never quite understood Active Directory before watching this. Amazingly explained. Thank you Sir!

This is one of the best videos I've found about this topic! Thank you!!

Born to be a teacher! Thank you very much for this video will check much more since your method is straight, stepped properly, not fast but with a lot to learn

Super helpful, one of the best tutorials on this subject.

This was such a great video for Active Directory. I am starting a new job that requires basic understanding for AD and this video really helped. Thank you! I am going to sign up for your Udemy courses to learn more and keep up my knowledge in this subject.

I couldn't stop nodding my head from start to finish. Good work Kelvin. 👏

I just started a new gig without any real IT knowledge and your classes are saving me - thank you!

Thank you for your courses! I'll look into the Azure and M365 ones on the weekend! Since I plan to become an sysadmin, this is the stuff I need! Cant thank you enough.

Kevin this videos and your teaching style is amazing! I will be taking your courses!!!

ah man, this course is amazing. Kevin is a amazing teacher, good pace and great explanation. This course has given me confidence in dealing with AD related queries. Definitely going to try your Udemy courses. Thanks again.

Thank you Kevin! Very well spoken, concise and informative!!🔥

I graduated back in 2019 just before covid19 and I did all these active directory in French but I find this is most useful video I have ever watched thank you

Bravo!!! You did! You made this so much easier to understand. Thanks. And yes, your course is pretty popular, I've seen the windows 2016 server course multiple times on udemy. I've actually saved it to my to-do list.👍

This was seriously the best video I have found on the topic. Thank you very much. I will defined explore your other videos. Thank you!

Just started a new job as a system admin and added a direction to go. this video put me in the right direction. thanks a lot

Awesome, you did a clear and precise course of how to install AD DC. I used to install and manage Netware 4.11 NDS. Thank you.

Thanks Kevin! This is a big help to me as I learn the basics of Active Directory. Nothing beats hands-on!

Thanks Mr. Kevin Brown for explaining everything, it really helped me a lot.

Thank you so much for the simple and straight forward explanation. Also, taking time for each configuration to explain it was so helpful. Thank you again sir.

The best AD fundamentals video in KZfaq👍🙏

Crystal Clear Explanation on ADDS and Group Policies with Examples. Real time system demo. Thank you.

Finally a hero teaches me the ad stuff. Bravo!

Thank you so much. This has made things so much clearer than just trying to put things together on my own

I don't usually leave any feedback which is not very polite from my side but expressing you that this is a master piece of content was a necessity. Thanks!

If this method of explaining IT knowledge was common, it would be actually encouraging to pick up. Fastest 50minute video of my life.

Oh Man !! Kevin, I like the way you have made the things clear and simple. I am amazed. I like your teachings. This is the first video I have seen of yours. Now I want to see all your videos. 👍

This is the best explanation of this thing I have seen. Thanks so much.

Actually incredible content! I’m now decently confident with AD DS just from this.

Thank you so much, man. you're saving my grade!

I had never seen a well explained video about active directory than this one. THUMPS UP

wow... just wow kevin!!! you are so understanding in explaining all of this, i normally watch a video then leave because of the delivery. thank you!

One of the best educational videos i have ever seen! You explain everything very well. Good job! :)

2 minutes in and I can already say this video is underrated. Thank you!

Thank you for your guidance. This video is so straightforward and easy to follow. So many other guides on this topic are either disorganized, or they assume previous knowledge. I'm trying to get my first job in IT so I've never used Active Directory in a live enterprise environment and this video helped so many things click for me. I will definitely be checking out your courses on Active Directory and Group Policy.

I had a thirst to understand AD through a lot of searches but nothing clearer like this, this is cool and great!!! Love soo much..❤❤

Thank you so much for making videos like this. It makes AD so simple and easy to understand!!

Explains in detail. Thak you very much, I learn a lot from this video.

This is the best tutorial I ever saw! GOD bless you sir for sharing this!

I’m student and this video helped me understand AD. Thanks teacher.

Very educative, simplified, easy to understand. Thank you

An absolute Masterclass in AD. This video helps tremendously in my CCNA and A+ studies.

Kevin Brown is very knowledgeable. Man, keep up the good work. God bless.

This is called talent and passion. I will purchase your courses that I need and I m going to promote you to ppl who needs great contents just in appreciation of you as great person and talent. I am lucky that I came across your videos. ❤

Finally, I understand what Active Directory does. Excelent tutorial!

Thank you. I have an interview this Friday and after watching this video I feel confident about the part of the interview. greater teacher.

I finally understand how Active Directory works on a functional level, thank you.

one of the best instructor have seen and so precisely on point and with top demonstrations

OMG. Just wonderful. Clear and Concise. Excellent Job.😄

I have never seen anyone to be so perfect in explaining all these topics so clearly like Kevin. I have always struggled with group policy but i got it now. I changed the wallpaper on PCs in my lab environment via GPO just from watching this video. I just bought Kevin's Windows server 2019 course on Udemy immediately i finished wathcing this. Much appreciation Kev.

I am learning for free and into detail what others charge so much money for. Great video, very educative, straight to the point

Thank you so much Kevin for the video, finally I find a very clear explanation that helps me with my course.

Well done explanation, very talented tutor, thank you mr. Brown

We need more of such informative content Kevin. Kudos.

From one IT brutha to anotha.......good stuff sir '

Damn I thought this was hard from my lectures but you made it crystal clear. Many thanks in these trying times

You should be the AD of all Professors and create a GP that they replicate in teaching the way you do. The IT force would be solid and phenomenal. Amazing and Thank You!!

I love how you explain this stuff! It's helpful for my work. Also, you have a pretty cool southern accent :P

I like way we’re teaching!!! Very informative 👏🏽

This is easily the best tutorial I hav seen!!

Good stuff. I am using Azure AD, so a lot less config, but same principles. This tutorial really helps with all the Windows/Microsoft lingo and terms.

this my first time watching your videos on youtube, thank you for informing about your participation on udemy, i am a udemy user and i will check your courses since the reason why i am watching this video is because i bought a n IT course but i was not understanding. thanks

Best lecture on AD and GPO

Great video thanks for being detailed unlike many other videos!
