Active Directory

Where is the KDC located?

The KDC for a domain is located on a domain controller, as is the Active Directory for the domain. Both services are started automatically by the domain controller’s Local Security Authority (LSA) and run as part of the LSA’s process. Neither service can be stopped. If the KDC is unavailable to network clients, then the Active Directory is also unavailable—and the domain controller is no longer controlling the domain. The system ensures availability of these and other domain services by allowing each domain to have several domain controllers, all peers. Any domain controller can accept authentication requests and ticket-granting requests addressed to the domain’s KDC.
