So what NAS are you running? Were you able to get it connected with AD?

I have two Synology NAS a DSM 7.1 and 6.2.4, your directions were perfect for the v6. All the details worked for the v7 but via a wizaed type system. Either way both are working perfectly. thanks.

Hi Emilio, useful video thanks ! I'm using DSM 7 and I can't find Domain Options. Where can I set the Domain Administrator? Thanks !

Hi Emilio, we have several remote locations that have very limited internet speed can this synology setup be used as a on site Domain Controller replica for the users to logon with their windows credentials?
best regards

Hi, is there a way to run synology as a BDC for Win Srv Essentials? I'm trying to find any info on that but it's hard. Have you run a simliar setup before?

It would be interesting to have a video talking about the use of Synology in conjunction with Windows Server. For example, using the NAS as a secondary AD on Windows Server, and as a file server for sharing files on the stations.

Emillio, any video to talk about migrating windows AD to DSM, then decommission the windows server? My windows server is R2012 and domain has just 3 users sharing a folder. We want to replace it with a synology NAS. That means AD, DNS, DHCP etc needs to be migrated adn we do not want to create a new domain, meaning users can log in to the same profile and remap the share. There is a "Migrate from a Windows Server Domain" in Synology Knowledge center but not much info about it.

Hello. I want domain users to automatically log in to Synology Chat. Is there such a function? Maybe it needs to be configured somewhere? This is the Synology chat of the Windows client. Not web version.
