HowTo join openSUSE Tumbleweed Desktop to NethServer-7 Active Directory
Please feel free to give me a feedback, I mean technically and formally.
Warning:
This is based upon limited testing, and a small number of users. Both, Client and Server, were installed as VPS under Proxmox PVE.
Server prerequisites:
Installed NethServer 7.4 Server and updated from command line. Active Directory has been configured and the domain-name example.org was given.
Client prerequisites:
Installed openSUSE Tumbleweed (openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-Snapshot20171204-Media.iso), with standard gnome desktop and one local user who has local admin rights. DHCP-Client was activ to get an IP from the NethServer who is acting as DHCP-and AD-Server. It is important that the openSUSE Client can resolv DNS correctly.
