                Domain Services is what everyone means when they talk about AD. Most businesses never even install the others, a lot don't even know that the others exist or what they do.

                      It's the first one. You are creating the domain.

                        Use wrcombs.local... or literally anything.

                          Add a new Forest. Domains are inside a forest. By creating the new forest, you also create a new domain.

                            he's not up to that point yet, he has to select "new" rather than "existing" first.

                            He's not familiar with Forests and Domains as groupings, so wasn't understanding what it was showing.

                                      They did. They recommend that you buy a domain now.

                                        for testing purposes, is that okay?

                                            What is Active Directory?

                                            AD is a central "white pages" like service where computers and applications on the network can literally "look up" information about computers or users. Like they can look up a users full name, their extension number, or their email address. Very basic in concept, but obviously super useful.

                                            That's how I've always thought of it.
