Question: How to join Windows AD (Active Directory) domain?
Answer:
Please check the DNS setting of “Network” setting on WebPASM. User needs to set the IP of
internal DNS server to primary or second DNS setting of Network setting. KDC (Kerberos Key
Distribution Center) means AD domain controller. If user wants to use a domain name in the setting
for KDC, please make sure the domain name can be resolved by internal DNS server. After check
the “Network” setting, set KDC name or IP to KDC field of “Protocol Control/Windows” page on
WebPASM. Other setting please refers SmartStor’s Product Manual.
Example:
The AD domain is “example.com”, AD domain controller is “server.example.com” and internal
DNS server is “192.168.1.2”.
Step 1: Fill in “192.168.1.2” to “Primary DNS” field at “Network” and press “OK” to apply the
setting.
Step 2: Fill in “example.com” to “Domain or Workgroup name” field at “Protocol
Control/Windows”.
Step 3: Fill in “server.example.com” to “KDC” field at “Protocol Control/Windows” and also fill
the other field accordingly then press “OK” to apply the setting. If you can see a message “join AD
domain is success” after you press the “OK”, it means you are joining domain successfully.
