Hello World,

I have server 03 installed in a virtual. I was wondering if it is wise to use it as the main server to connect all the other pc?

I have a hp Pavilion dv6000, 1.9 dual core processor with 2gigs of ram.

Or Should I just server on a desktop and connect it when I create the domain?

Remember you may find problem if there's a problem with the virtual machine and this server is the domain controller, and the laptop running it as a virtual mahcine belongs to the same domain.

If it's a DC better to not have the physical machine as part of the domain.

It sounds like it would be in my best interest to just have a machine with server installed and use it as the main domain.

Correct. Unless you have domain replication, etc...
