Rights Management Service Part I

Created new user/group for Rights Management Service.

Added new server role, Active directory rights management service. While doing installation of active directory rights management service, ran into some errors during specifying of service account. had an error that said password could not be validated.

Checked out user account that was newly created. Tested that it could log into the machine. Failed to log in. Logged back into administrator account and joined new user account to group that allows login to server terminal.

Tried to install active directory rights management service again. able to install properly this time.

Checked with Mr Wagio regarding the testing of rights management service, told us we were supposed to test it out with the vista os and microsoft office.

Went to Helpdesk to get Microsoft office 2007. Vincent said he'll come down to the lab tomorrow morning to install office for us.

Played with the ip settings on win server 08 so that we'll be able to connect to the internet.
Changed IP settings
IPv4: 192.168.145.100
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.145.2
DNS Server: 192.168.145.2

Successful connection to internet. Loaded www.google.com

Changed IP settings on Windows Vista to enable connectivity to internet
IPv4: 192.168.145.105
Subnet: 255.255.255.0

Time to clock out! Will need to test connectivity + logging into domain with newly created user account tomorrow + RMS and check on those nasty warnings on the server.
