2.2 Change SQL Server to Mixed Role Authentication:
If you have configured SQL Server with Window Authentication mode and want to configure for
mixed role. Then follow the given steps, otherwise skip this section.
It is considered best practice to configure SQL Server instance to allow only Windows
authentication. However, some situations require that SQL Server authentication be used. There
are two methods to change SQL Server to mixed mode authentication after installation.
Step 1: Enable Mixed Mode Authentication in Management Studio.

If you can connect to SQL Server with Windows authentication, you can enable mixed-mode
authentication easily using SQL Server Management Studio.

you can browse for more.
6. Ensure "Authentication" is set to "Windows Authentication".
7. Verify the "User name" is correct (e.g., DESKTOP-60F4G2A\Dell).
8. Under "Connection Security", set "Encryption" to "Mandatory".
9. Check the box for "Trust server certificate".
10.Click on the "Connect" button to establish the connection.
Step 3: To Connect with SQL Server Authentication Mode:

1. Open SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS).
2. Go to the "File" menu.
3. Click on "Connect Object Explorer".
4. In the "Connect to Server" dialog box, set "Server type" to "Database Engine".
5. Enter the "Server name" (e.g., DESKTOP-60F4G2A\MYSQLSERVER). If you don't know it,
you can browse for more.
6. From the "Authentication" drop-down menu, select "SQL Server Authentication".
7. The Login name will default to "sa" (System Admin).
8. Enter the "Password" that you set during the installation of the SQL Server.

Type the following command:
docker version
If you can see Client-server Details, then it is Installed Completely.
6. Kubernetes Setup Using Docker Desktop
Docker Desktop simplifies the developing applications for Kubernetes. It provides a simple
Kubernetes setup experience by hiding the complexity of the installation and networking
details. Developers can focus entirely on their work rather than dealing with the Kubernetes
setup details.
● Step 1: Install Kubernetes on Windows 10.
1. Right-click the Docker tray icon.

2. Click "Settings".
3. On the left panel click "Kubernetes".
4. Check Enable Kubernetes and click "Apply".
Wait until the 'Installation complete!' popup message is shown up.
If both services (Docker & Kubernetes) are running successfully without errors, both icons at
the bottom left will go green.
● Step 2: Install Kubernetes Dashboard.
Kubernetes Dashboard is not installed by default. Run the following commands to deploy &
enable the Kubernetes Dashboard using the following commands.
1. Download the yaml configuration file

from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/v2.0.0-
rc7/aio/deploy/recommended.yaml
2. Deploy it using kubectl apply -f .\recommended.yaml
3. Verify that it's running using the following command: kubectl.exe get -f
.\recommended.yaml.txt
● Step 3: Access the Dashboard.
There are two ways to access the dashboard with tokens:
the first one is using the default token that was created during the installation of Kubernetes
and the second (more secure) way is by creating users, giving them permissions, and then get
the generated token. we will use the first way.
1. Run the following command PowerShell (not cmd) ((kubectl -n Kube-system describe
secret default | Select-String "token:") -split " +")[1]
2. Copy the generated token
3. Run kubectl proxy.
4. Open the following link on your
browser: http://localhost:8001/api/v1/namespaces/kubernetes-
dashboard/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard:/proxy/
5. Select Token & paste the generated token
6. Sign In.
Step 4: Finally!
If everything is configured properly, you'll be able to see the dashboard and your cloud
resources. From there you can do almost all the "hard" work without dealing with the CLI
every time.
7. Git Installation
Git is a widely used open-source software tracking application used to track projects across
different teams and revision levels.
Installing Git prompts you to select a text editor. If you don’t have one, we strongly advise you

default is 'master.' Unless you're working in a team that requires a different name, leave
the default option and click Next.
● Step 10: This installation step allows you to change the PATH environment. The PATH is
the default set of directories included when you run a command from the command
line. Leave this on the middle (recommended) selection and click Next.
● Step 11: Server Certificates, Line Endings and Terminal Emulators
The installer now asks which SSH client you want Git to use. Git already comes with its own
SSH client, so if you don't need a specific one, leave the default option and click Next.
● Step 12: This option is related to server certificates. Most users should use the default.
If you’re working in an Active Directory Environment, you may need to switch to Windows
Store Certificates. Click Next.
