Title: Login in windows with opnsense account
Post by: Soul Leader on March 23, 2017, 09:53:23 am
Hello
I am new in this so I want ask about windows login.
I found a solution with samba 4 and it is in clearos but I must pay for clearos if I want use all functions without limit.
I found this OPNsense which recommended many people because very good.

How can I connect my windows to OPNsense and login in the windows with OPNsense account?
I can`t find Active directory and other things in OPNsense or I am blind.

Or it is not possible use OPNsense as windows login system and same time a firewall?

OPNsense can use Active Directory but doesn't host it out of the box. Your best alternative for a free directory is samba on Linux.

If your hardware is up to it, you can run a free hypervisor with samba and opnsense as guest VM's. ESXi, KVM and virtualbox are the most common options.
