Active directory and MAC OS Sonoma

How I should configure MAC OS Sonoma on Nethserver 8 Active directory. Till now I could join domain with all Win 10 and 11 machines but I don´t know how to with MAC´s, all I do ends as “Couldn´t get server information” or “can´t connect to server”

Hello and welcome to the NethServer Community!

I did it with Mojave and NethServer 7.6 AD: HowTo join macOS (Mojave) to NethServer 7.6 AD

Should work similar… How do you get an IP and DNS Information on the macOS?

I tested with static IP and DNS and DHCP and a mix of both, all unsuccessfully. If I ping ad.domain I get responce from the correct IP on server but still get can´t connect to authentication server on MAC. On Windows machines all OK

You have to ensure a DHCP and DNS Service in your LAN for your Clients… How do you make it?
Tell me on what machine DHCP and DNS is running and your IP-Address-Range etc.

I use DHCP on pfsense, and set DNS to AD domain IP, something like this:


May be I should DNS redirect to 127.0.0.1 and host override to 172.20.0.245?

What Subnetmask do you use? What is your exact DHCP-Range?

Does the Nethserver 8 have a static IP (ad.midomain.net 172.20.0.245)?

Can you test DNS resolution with nslookup on Windows and macOS Clients (ad.midomain.net 172.20.0.245)?
