Windows 2019 server
Author: Stefan Waldvogel
Installation:
Download the iso via Microsofts evaluations program (www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-windows-server-2019)
Install it on a virtual machine, -> I use VirtualMachineManager on a RHEL host, but this does not matter.
Before you start the installation, make sure to configure your network. I use a NAT with a partial DHCP range.

This machine is a Domain Controller and the IP should be static. My DHCP range is 192.168.15.2 to 10. I move DC to a static IP.
System requirements:
2-4 cores -> I use 4 cores
4GB - 12GB RAM -> I use 12 GB Ram
>36GB disk -> I use 44GB disk
This is a test system and we use a domain user.

Windows Server enforces a strong password.
For this test I use:
LimaCharl1e!
--> Later I will try to crack it and see what is happening.
If everything worked fine, you see the Server manager

The first thing I want to do is changing the name to chgserver under system settings.

Now we need to install the Domain Controller role
Everything else is Next and at the end is Install.
This takes a while and if it done, click close.
On the top you see a warning, click on it and promote the server to a Domain Controller.

Change the setting to "Add new forest" and pick your domain name (something.local).

Click install. This takes a while and your server will restart. If you did everything right, you can login as a domain user. Here, my netbios name is CYBER-DC and therefore I see this.

Now we can set up users, groups and some other things.
I am a fan of a clean environment and move all security groups in a new created Organizational Unit with the name Groups. This is just to have a cleaner view and it is easier to see other users.
Create a ground and add at least two users (right click, new user...) into it.

Installing a browser
I installed Brave on this system, because Internet Explorer and all the related security settings does not work with cyberhuntingguide.
Install LimaCharlie
-> see Windows client but you cannot run installer.exe in c:\. Move it to a different location like C:\tools and run the command with a {.\}:
.\installer.exe -i {your_key}
