4 Classroom Setup Guide


Single Domain/Workgroup Model
The classroom is configured in the single domain/workgroup model, as shown
in the following graphic.



The instructor computer (London) has Windows 2000 Advanced Server
installed as a domain controller in the classroom domain, which is
nwtraders.msft. Each student computer has Windows 2000 Advanced Server
installed as a member server in the nwtraders.msft domain.
Classroom Setup Guide 5


Setup Instructions
Use the following procedures to prepare each computer for class.

The instructor computer (London) must be set up completely before
you begin setting up the student computers. Student computer setup occurs over

the network by using file shares that are created on the instructor computer.

Before You Begin
You will need to do the following:
!
Read through all setup procedures.
!
Make sure that you have the Trainer Materials compact disc that is provided
with the course materials.
!
Prepare a Microsoft MS-DOS
®
system disk and a network boot disk.

MS-DOS System Disk
To set up the instructor computer, you must have an MS-DOS system disk. This
disk must include the following:
!
MS-DOS system files.
!
MS-DOS drivers for the CD-ROM drive of the instructor computer.
!
Xcopy.exe, Xcopy32.exe, and Xcopy32.mod. These files must be located
either on the root of the system disk or in a location that is specified in the
MS-DOS path statement in the Autoexec.bat file.
!
Smartdrv.exe and Himem.sys. Running Smartdrv.exe dramatically increases
the performance of the file copying process that occurs during the initial
phase of setup. With Smartdrv loaded, this process generally takes 30
minutes or less. Without Smartdrv, it might take several hours.

Some computers can use Microsoft Windows 98 startup disks, which
include drivers for most CD-ROM drives.

Network Boot Disk
Setup of the student computers takes place over the network. As a result, you
must have an MS-DOS system disk that includes drivers for network adapters
in the student computers. In addition, the network boot disk must include the
Xcopy.exe, Xcopy32.exe, and Xcopy32.mod files either on the root of the
system disk or in a location that is specified in the MS-DOS path statement in
the Autoexec.bat file.
The batch files that are used to set up the student computers require a large
amount of MS-DOS environment space. Therefore, it is recommended that you
include the following line in the Config.sys file on the boot disk:
Shell = a:\command.com /p /e:1024

Windows 2000 does not include a utility for creating network boot disks.

6 Classroom Setup Guide


Setup Overview
Read this section before you begin configuring the computers. Failure to follow
the instructions in this Classroom Setup Guide will cause the labs to fail.
These setup instructions provide you with both automated and manual
installation procedures and automated configuration procedures. If you

complete the automated installation, the configuration is also completed
automatically. If you cannot complete an automated installation of the software,
you can follow the manual procedures in the Manual Classroom Setup Guide
on the Trainer Materials compact disc. Following a manual installation, you
must complete the post-installation configuration procedure. It is very important
that you allocate enough time for a manual installation if you are not sure that
the automated installation will work in your environment.

Verify that the classroom is set up correctly by referring to the
Classroom Setup Checklist section in this guide.

Estimated time to set up the classroom: 4 hours

Classroom Setup Guide 7


Automated Classroom Setup
Use the following instructions to perform an automated setup of the classroom.
Instructor Computer
Use the following instructions to set up the instructor computer.
!
To set up the hardware
1. Set up the hardware according to the manufacturer’s instructions. (Refer to
the hardware requirements.)
2. Configure the hard disk as follows:
• Drive C: 2 GB formatted as FAT (file allocation table)
• Drive D: 2 GB formatted as FAT
!
To install and configure Windows 2000 Advanced Server and the
courseware files

3. Start the computer by using the MS-DOS system disk.
4. Insert the Trainer Materials compact disc into the CD-ROM drive.
5. Type x:\setup\lonset (where x is the letter assigned to the CD-ROM drive),
and then press ENTER.
6. On the course title screen, press SPACEBAR to continue.
7. On the Welcome screen, press SPACEBAR to continue.
8. On the Selecting Classroom Number screen, type the number that
corresponds to the IP network number to be used for this classroom.

Unless the classrooms on your network are isolated from one another,
you must choose a unique network number for each classroom to avoid
possible IP address conflicts.

The Installing Configuration Files screen appears, and the courseware
files are copied to the hard disk.
9. When the file copying process is complete, press SPACEBAR to continue.
10. Insert the Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server compact disc into the
CD-ROM drive, and then press SPACEBAR to continue.
Setup copies the I386 folder on the Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced
Server compact disc to the hard disk.

If Smartdrv is loaded, this process should take less than 30 minutes.

Note
Note
8 Classroom Setup Guide


11. When the file copying process is complete, remove the MS-DOS system
disk and the Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server compact disc, and

then press SPACEBAR to continue.
An automated setup of Windows 2000 Advanced Server begins.
When the automated setup process is complete, the computer restarts and
automatically logs you on as Administrator with a password of password.
After the logon process, a batch file runs and sets the wallpaper for the
instructor computer, and then runs DCPromo.exe to install the Active
Directory™ directory service and create the nwtraders.msft domain.
When Active Directory installation is complete, Setup restarts the computer,
logs you on as Administrator, and runs a batch file to complete the setup of
the instructor computer (London).
12. During setup of the instructor computer, you will be prompted to insert
compact discs in the following order:
• Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Enterprise Edition
• Microsoft Visual Interdev 6.0
• Microsoft Office 2000 Premium Edition
• Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 3
• Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 Standard Edition
• Microsoft Visual Studio Service Pack 3
In each case, you will be prompted to insert the appropriate compact disc
into your CD-ROM drive. After the compact disc has been inserted, click
OK, and Setup will continue. After you have inserted the Microsoft Visual
Studio Service Pack 3 compact disc and have clicked OK, Setup will
proceed from then on in a fully unattended fashion.
If Setup is unable to copy files from one of your compact discs, a message
box will be displayed informing you that the files could not be copied.
When the automated setup is complete, you will need to refer to the Manual
Setup Guide located on the Trainer Materials compact disc for instructions
on manually installing that application.

The first time Setup tries to copy a compact disc, it might not be able

to identify the drive letter of your CD-ROM drive. If you are prompted for
the drive letter, type only the letter itself (for example, E), and then click
OK.

13. When all of the items on the checklist are marked as complete, automated
setup of the instructor computer is finished. To ensure that all applications
