Has anyone successfully used AD authentication using the latest version of FreeNAS with Windows 2008 R2 domain controllers? I wanted to use FreeNAS to host files and share them via CIFS but I couldn't make FreeNAS authenticate with a Windows 2008 R2 domain controller. Ultimately, the new CIFS shares will be referenced in the DFS namespace that we already have running on Windows 2008 R2 servers.

Any tip you can share with me?

I suspect it has something to do with the way NAS tries to authenticate to AD, can you check if there are any errors in the logs? – Vick Vega Mar 3 '11 at 21:45

Here you can do it (in FreeNAS, you must use the pre-win2000 domain name. For example if your domain name is ‘freenas.org’, you must set the domain name ’FREENAS’)

Access:Active Directory Source
