The number of NIC's needed to setup Active Directory in 2003

[itguy123]

Hi everyone:

I'm just starting my MCSE training, so I'm sure I'll become a fixture in this forum. So here is my first question. A peer at work told me that I will need 2
NIC's to be able to setup Active Directory in Server 2003.
Is this true?? I've done some searching on the NET but haven't found any information to collaborate his claims.
Any thoughts??

Thanks in advance for the feedback.

You need one NIC per machine to setup AD.

You need only one NIC per domain controller.
