Active Directory Basics: Demonstrate Your Skills
Hello,
I'm a little confused as to Q10 of this lab and sincerely hope I wasn't the only one until somebody figured it out?
As with the question, I have gone into Server Manager and followed the instructions by adding COMP-HYDRA to the domain but getting the error message below?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

DG - Hello again, but I'm totally confused now :-(
So for my own understanding I will break down what I understand to be the case.
I need to add the host - COMP-HYDRA - to the domain. So I need to find the domain in question. So what I have done is go into the DC tab, and found the domain name below for the DC.
So when I go back into the COMP-HYDRA tab, and add this domain name I get the error message as below.
Am I going in the wrong direction now?

Hey Dark_Knight666 if you go to the DC tab > Server Manager > Local Server. It will give you the proper Domain to enter for this COMP-HYDRA computer. ;)

DG - Thank you for helping. But where is the DC tab? It appears I need to go into the Domain Controller before accessing Server Manager?

Dark_Knight666 My apologies, you are in the tab labeled DC (In the top Tab selections)
Take a look at Local Server (from that left hand column inside Server Manager)
It will show the full Domain name to enter. It wont be COMP-HYDRA. It will be something.local
You're very close!
