Read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature. We are happy to help you with problems, but don't ask people to look things up for you, or hand you links.

The very first hit in Google for "how to set up linux to be a domain controller" is:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Set...ain_Controller

...a step-by-step guide from the Samba website. There are 2.5+ million more after that.
