Deploying a domain controller in core mode [deploying Windows Server 2008 Series for an enterprise] six]

In the previous < One step start centralized management [deploy Windows Server 2008 series five]> for Enterprise] in the article we have a domain controller installed in Server 2008 in full installation mode, and we know that Windows Server 2008 Core mode (kernel installation mode) is also supported. For a larger-load domain controller, to increase his performance, we can also deploy a domain controller in core mode. This will greatly enhance the performance and stability of our domain controllers.

So, here to eat a reassuring, in fact, the core model is very good management because we have a graphical management tools. So how do you deploy DCs in core mode, and how do you achieve remote management? Take a look at the specific steps below (don't blink oh ^_^):
