Truenas and AD FLOP! - Software Tutorials - semi-advanced overview - 22

Truenas is king of open-source storage.
However, when it comes to working in team with AD, it doesn't play very nice.

here's my take on it.
through sweat and patience, I went and tested WS 2016-22 and truenas 11-13, and every combination in between. Fail after fail. error after error. it just seems that truenas doesn't love active directory.

Verdict? please use WS (any version) for a file storage server IF you need a centralized user management system. if you have truenas for just a few users, I will wholeheartedly recommend truenas as your file storage Alcatraz due to how amazing it is in its entirety.
