Can I add 2019 Standard Server to a SBS 2011 Domain as a SQL Server?

Question

I have a new 2019 server standard that I am going to make and SQL server. I am having problems joining it to my existing SBS 2011 domain as just a file server. What am I missing? I just tried to add it the regular way by configuring the IP and Gateways and just joining the Domain.

What happens when you try? Make sure the domain controller and problem member both have the static ip address of DC listed for DNS and no others such as router or public DNS.

Please run;

Dcdiag /v /c /d /e /s:%computername% >C:\dcdiag.log
repadmin /showrepl >C:\repl.txt
ipconfig /all > C:\dc1.txt
ipconfig /all > C:\problemmember.txt

then put unzipped text files up on OneDrive and share a link.

Answer 4

Dcdiag /v /c /d /e /s:%computername% >C:\dcdiag.log (on domain controller)
repadmin /showrepl >C:\repl.txt (on domain controller)
ipconfig /all > C:\dc1.txt (on domain controller)
ipconfig /all > C:\problemmember.txt (on problem member server)

then put unzipped text files up on OneDrive and share a link.
