I’m looking into AD for homelab. I have narrowed it down to samba ad / freeIPA / msad.

Looked into openldap and looked to complicated. Besides MSAD anyone tried samba ad or freeIPA.

    It’s been a few years since I tried alternatives, but I ended up back at MS active directory. AD is one of the things Microsoft did really well, and supported forever. It’s a shame they’re working on killing it off now.

    Everything else kinda worked for the most part, but there would always be issues I’d have to work around. That might have gotten better over the years, but I wouldn’t count on it.

      What do you mean MS is killing off AD? As far as I know they’ve just renamed Azure AD. (But there’s a good possibility I’ve missed something.)
