For a first-timer, which WSL distro would you recommend to install on the domain controller?
@nyanbinary Is gentoo available in WSL yet? That would be the ideal combination with a DC.

@cR0w I'd love to be able to tell you but for some reason
wsl --list --onlineon the DC throws an error

@nyanbinary Huh. Have you tried disabling the firewall for the DC? Make sure it's not blocking anything to the Internet?

@cR0w seems to be fine,
iwr -Uri <some msi from github> -outfile tmp.msiintomsiexec.exe tmp.msiseems to be fine?

@nyanbinary Weird. Maybe it's the inbound settings. Have you made sure to port forward a public IP to the DC? Make sure not to miss SMB and RDP as those are important.

@cR0w hm, I guess this would actually be easier if I enabled RDP instead of just using remote PS...

@nyanbinary Aahh! You can't just ask what distro to use on fedi, you'll start a holy war! Run! Escape while you can!

@nyanbinary Definitely but make sure to disable NLA.

@varx hm, I don't get it. Aren't they, like, all the same but just different skins?

@cR0w @nyanbinary I’m sorry, but this is terrible advice. A DC is a highly privileged server, and installing any WSL on it would be a bad idea unless it’s Qubes.

@cR0w @nyanbinary Be sure to use GCC flag -funroll-ldap for totally sick DC-specific optimizations.

@da_667 hm, this is a good point. Given my endpoint security monitoring tool doesn't capture WSL stuff this should help reduce false positives by offloading noisy workloads to WSL!

@rgsteele @cR0w @nyanbinary Actual real DC or home lab you don't care about security on and you're OK if it implodes* when you patch it?
