Hi there,
I have a Windows Server 2008 Datacenter and I want to set up a Sharepoint 2013 environment on it since I'm learning SP. Unfortunately, I think there are some issues:
1. I cannot install a 2nd server, not even virtual because of issues with Hyper-V and cpu not supported for 64-bit.
2. I would love to have some degree of AD, for user management within Sharepoint.
As being a noob to this kind of configuration setting, I have been looking around the internet and did not find a clear answer.
So my question is: is it possible to have a standalone server 2008 with (limited) AD configuration and Sharepoint Foundation running on it? Is ADAM or a lightweight AD software around that can be used within Sharepoint?
Thanks for all your help.
