Installing SharePoint Server 2010
-
This video shows the procedure to install and configure SharePoint Server 2010. It accomplishes this using the wizard driven process. The installation process installs Central Administration which is then used to create a web application, site collection and start up the various services.
This is a good way to setup SharePoint for a development environment. However, for a production environment, it’s recommended to configure SharePoint and its services individually as needed.

Great. I have to setup my SharePoint 2010 based on Kerberos Authentication. On installation it prompts you to setup SPN accounts in the active directory. Can you shed some light on these SPN accounts and what you need to do in SharePoint 2010 so as Kerberos Authentication is used instead of NTLM.
thanks and keep it up.

The kerberos setup process has not changed, to my knowledge, much from 2007.
I would recommend starting with the process described here:

Good Luck!

Thanks Asif, very helpful video.
I am setting up a 3 server farm (SP2010, SQL2008R2 and SQLRS2008R2) and configuring reporting services integration. The instructions say to install SharePoint as a Web Front End on the Reporting Services Server. However, in the 2010 installation process, I cannot advanced tab and the WFE option to which the instructions refer. Here is the TechNet link I am trying to follow: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa905869(SQL.105,printer).aspx
Am I missing something or has the WFE option been removed from the 2010 installer?
Video on configuring RS integration in 2010 would be super helpful.
Thanks!

I haven’t messed with SP and RS integration in 2010 yet Tom. If I do, I’ll definitely create a video about it.

It’s probably a useful point to highlight that certain things aren’t available in standalone installation, one of the big ones being the User Profile Synchronization Service.

“You cannot use User Profile Synchronization in a single server with built-in database installation. If you want to use User Profile Synchronization, you must use a server farm installation of SharePoint.”

Hi Asif,
I followed your instruction but you have touched or missed to describe the most complicated topic of User Profile Synchronization. Please add more information on how the Synchroniz the User Profile.
