Good article. There is ZERO reason to have a GUI on a Domain Controller. Everything can be done through Server Manager on Windows 10/8

You mean RSAT 😉

Both? You can do a lot of directory management through Server Manager as well.

Ok, agree. Just don't like the Server Manager this much, ugly interface. I want to be sure WHICH drive on WHICH host I'm going to format for example. But that is just my personal opinion and I'm more or less a console fetishist 😉

But when it comes to ADSIedit or AD sites, you really want to have RSAT.

huh?

Those options are generally only there is RSAT is installed.
