Understanding Active Directory and Group Policy

I've worked in IT for over 15 years but having had a career break I needed a quick refresh on AD&GP. Could not have found a better video. Straight to the point, well narrated, well paced and slim enough to cover the main points you need to know. Highly recommended video.

I am only five minutes in and I can confidently say that you are one of the most elegant instructors I have seen on YouTube.

I needed to know enough of AD to be able to answer some interview questions, as I have not used it since 2005... I have been a tech for about 30 yrs. I forget things that I don't use. This Video Tut. is awesome! Great job in explaining, and your vocab is perfect. Thank you Kevin.

At 28, I have just started my IT career. I was able to understand the basics of ADDS. Thank you! I will go through to other videos every night.

I've never seen any instructors or teachers who can simplify a task. amazing job.

i am amazed how well this tutorial is. No bs, no talking in vain, just straight to the point and then most importantly, showing everything in practical use. Well done. I ll be sure to share this video to my peers if they have trouble understanding DC

This has been one of the best videos I've found on YouTube. You've explained the how and the why in a way I can easily understand. I'll be signing up for more of your courses on payday as there is much more I need to learn. Thank you for this video.

This video is awesome! Your explanation are simple, straightforward and easy to understand! Thank you so much Kevin!

I just started a new gig without any real IT knowledge and your classes are saving me - thank you!

Awesome explanation, Kevin. My understanding of Domain Controller, Active Directory services is crystal clear now. Very much appreciated. Thanks much.

Kevin I have completed your Udemy course on Active Directory 2016 around two years back and since then I became your fan. Your teaching method is simple, clear and highly informative.

This is an excellent video. I've been struggling to comprehend the whole AD env for a while now, and this video helped me break that line

I know this is an older video, but....Wow, I have been trying to understand and learn active directory for weeks , mainly to see if my existing commercial network would benefit from it. I have watched tons of videos and still did not really understand . I was about to move on and forget about it when I found this video. Within 5 minutes I fully understood its purpose and realized what it could do for my business network and my sanity! Thanks so much for taking the time to put this video out! I will most definitely check out your other classes on Udemy!!!

Great video explaining Active Directory and group policy. Perfect for someone pursuing a career in IT. Thanks. Pls ignore my Personal notes: Active directory (AD) = Role in server. Once AD installed system becomes a "Domain Controller". Benefit of AD = Centralized Administration. Can create policies. Can manage all users and computers. No need to be in front of physical PC to do things such as, reset PW or Create user accounts. Should have at least 2 Domain controllers. AD replicates to other Domain controllers.

This is the best Group Policy/AD tutorial i've seen on youtube! I subscribed!

starting in my job and not knowing anything about active directory this puts things into a crstyal clear picture of why active directory is needed within the first 5 mins. Thank you!!!

Great tutorial! so far the best one I've seen on YouTube!

I just started this IT class and been watching this video over and over. I just love it, Very under standing. Thank you very much

Oh man... what an amazing video. 1 hour, but straight to the point, and you leave understanding everything. Great work.

What a great quality! You don't even need more than 3 minutes of watching to recognize that this video has a very high quality and deserve a like. Great job!
