Hi, WinCC Server an Windows domain Controller on the same PC is not allowed. Use a Separat PC as a domain controller. Details see WinCC online help and search for "domain" also see http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/23721796 and search for domain in the service and support portal |

But you configured the WinCC server as a domain controller before or after you installed SQL Server + WinCC? You manually created the necessary groups? Lots of forums and the Microsoft's website tells that is not recommended to install SQL Server in a domain controller. Can it cause some conflicts in the future, crashing the system or decrease the performance? I went to the safe way, keeping the system without a domain controller, but I should try it one more time if I have the time. This topic tells something about it: https://www.automation.siemens.com/tf/WW/en/Posts/1688 "it is not recommended to use one machine for both Domain Controller and WinCC Server. You should use seperate computers. TheDomain Controller functionality runs a lot of additional processes and services on the computer which will decrease the WinCC performance or even disturb the normal WinCC operation.
