Hi Guys,
Long time lurker. I can confirm in order to join an AD domain you need at least win 10
Pro
The below using Samba isn’t a bad idea in all fairness. The question becomes though how
would you join an windows 10 home machine to the samba AD controller?
Regards,
Jonathan

I was asked to set up a completely new network for a non-profit. They

have only used FreeIPA (or RedHat IDM) in a standalone configuration.
Is there any kind of best practices documentation for this situation? A
discussion of a sync vs. trust approach? Any known gotchas?
Things to consider:
- Windows machines cannot be enrolled into FreeIPA, they have to be
enrolled into Active Directory
- If users are all on Active Directory side, they can login to
FreeIPA-enrolled machines through trust to Active Directory
- While winsync plugin allows to synchronize users from Active
Directory side to FreeIPA (they become FreeIPA users), this is of
limited functionality and in general not going to live well in future
as we consider deprecating this approach
It used to be that non-Pro versions of Windows weren't possible to join to Active
Directory. I'd rather checked what is in use before planning it.
For a non-profit it is probably worth to consider deploying Samba AD as your Active
Directory configuration.
