The aim of this guide is to take the reader through a typical installation of a small Windows Server 2019 network and is written for the following audiences
•Someone who is new to Windows Server 2019 and installing it for the first time •Someone setting up Windows Server 2019 in a small business setting •Someone wishing to learn the basics of Windows Server 2019 and who wants a succinct, practical guide based on real world scenarios
The approach is very much practical and hands on. It should give you a basic understanding of Windows Server and help you setup a network that should meet the needs of a typical small organization such as a business, non-profit, church, school and so on. However, it is not intended as a detailed description of all Window Server’s many capabilities or as a reference manual and is not aimed at enterprise installations involving large numbers of servers and techniques such as virtualization. It assumes a reasonable working knowledge of Windows and the basics of networking. It is written in a friendly, “do-it-like-this” style, rather than with undue emphasis on theory and abstract topics.
