Hi: One of the things I'm looking at doing in 2016 is migrating our domain controlers, currently about 38 Server 2008R2 around the world, to 2012R2. Our DCs are just DCs, DNS and DHCP servers, I keep as much 3RD party software off of them as I can. I'm really considering using server core for all but a couple DCs, as I manage most of them remotely anyway and the AD Powershell module seems pretty full featured in 2012R2. I've seen a lot from MS on server core, but haven't seen as much from people using it in the wild in large scale deployments. Does it mainly work as advertised? Any got yas other than the obvious 3RD party software issue? If you're not using it, why not? Ryan
