Virtual private networks / Configuring LDAP for Windows 2019 Environment

« on: December 02, 2023, 12:37:16 pm »

Hi guys,

I currently have VPN user accounts authenticating using local passwords but am considering using LDAP instead on a Windows 2019 server environment.

What are the pros’/ cons of using LDAP?
It looked a fairly detailed process to setup or am I looking at old instructions?
Does it require a user license on the Windows Server?

We may need to start to monitor user file access and LDAP should make this process easier.

Thanks as always and have a great weekend

Thanks guys for your feedback.
So if i understand correctly, I could repeatedly upgrade and the updater will simply automatically upgrade to the next logical version / restart and repeat.

It is something that can be attempted remotely with the firewall automatically rebooting after each update? I am thinking over the weekend. Both internet feeds are connected to the Firewall.

I agree there is possibly some value in exporting the current configuration / reflashing the hardware with the latest firmware and importing the previously exported configuration.

I did not actually install this unit so have not flashed a OPNsense unit before.

Thanks again
Maj

Hi guys and happy weekend!

I have a system that was installed for a client and is running firmware OPNsense 22.1-amd64 while I see the current available Version is 23.7.8

What is the best / safest upgrade path I should consider.

Many thanks in advance
Majr
