RSAT - ADUC only
When installing RSAT, I want to limit the installation to ADUC only. The nearest I can get is to install Active Directory Administration Centre....this does indeed install ADUC, but also installes AD Sites and Services, ADDomains and Trusts, AD Module for Windows and AD Admin CentreIs there anyway to filter this installation to only install ADUC?CheersIan

Hi Ian, When installing RSAT all services will be installed and we cannot only select certain of them to install. If you do not want other users to use other tools of RSAT, you can turn off them in Program and Features. You may refer the "Instructions" in the download page.

Hi ArthurI don't think you were quite understanding my question. Yes I have installed RSAT and can filter the installation to include a subset of tools. The point I was making is that it isn't quite granular enough for my needs.If I want to install ADUC then I have to choose the AD Administrative Center.....unfortunately this installs all the tools listed above, whereas I want to install ADUC only. There is no option I can see to restrict the installation to this single tool.CheersIan

Hi Ronnie Not sure why you remarked this as an answer when it quite clearly isn't. It may be an explanation of what is available and how to turn features on and off, however, my question was specific to only having ADUC and not the other services that come with AD Admin Centre. Cheers Ian

So...any way we can get a real answer here? One year later and there still isn't much out there about this. I would like to deploy only ADUC remotely--we have several remote locations and I don't necessarily have the luxury of accessing the GUI to do this...

I don't think it's possible to install them separately, as previously was possible with the "adminpak.msi" (rsat for win2003) install-switches. In fact, I'm replying this, hoping that someone will contradict me ;-) Best effort : configure a GPO with software restriction policy, disallowing usage the unwanted tools?
