The default selection when installing Server is without the GUI. You would have to select Desktop Experience for a GUI.

and I'm up with Server 2019

Now just to figure out how to set up AD.. What roles should I set up? So many questions

brandon220

@WrCombs Install the Role "Active Directory Domain Services" and "DNS Server"

Installed.
Gotta setup a Domain controller now, it wont let me do anything else (add user, computers, etc. ) until I do.

Just in case you're starting a new AD: Better go read a few articles about AD DNS setup, naming conventions and general best practices before configuring the role. Choosing a good root level domain name is of utmost importance and it shouldn't be changed later.

It's possible, but requires expert level knowledge. It's like jumping through a minefield - blindfolded on a pogo stick.

@WrCombs I did Choco based VBox installs last night!

ha Nice ! i opened VBox and it said there was an upgrade available, decided it was a good time to go a head and upgrade that.

I run mine headless. I automate it from the command line via MeshCentral.

Wonder what it would take to automate upgrades like that via Powershell.. New project!

use chocolatey itself to update it self automatically

choco install choco-upgrade-all-at -y

That's annoying, the column command has limited amount of options in Debian 10 and Ubuntu 19.10 compared to Fedora. I have a script that uses column and the option that I'm using doesn't exist with the version on Debian/Ubuntu.

you could compile a version from source. Or maybe replace column with a combination of awk and sed?

No go with compiling since I sometimes use my script while using a Live distro installer. Maybe I can use awk and/or sed but the formatting is off compare to using column. I'll just stick with using Fedora Live installers when I want to run the script in a live session.
