but a bit confused when I reach 3)


Go to View - Tree in the LDP tree and enter the forest DN ...

my question is that if my domain name is eDomain.com what is my forest DN?


Thanks for your help

The DN (Distinguished Name) should be:

dc=eDomain,dc=com

That should be the DN of the root domain, which I assume is the DN of the
forest.

Hello Sanjay,

If you built the domain at the first time, you have to built the forest and
in this forest the domain. So if you did not built the forest with another
name, they are both the same.

Hi Meinolf,


so if my domain is eDomain.com (for example), what would I enter

in Tree View.

The diago box is expecting an input;

BaseDN:


so would I enter DN=eDomain ??

Please see the print screen at:
