Cannot login to the webGUI using Active Directory user
-
pfsense is successfully joined to the Active Directory server (Samba4). A group has already been created both in pfsense and in the AD (same name). Using Diagnostics > Authentication, the user is successfully authenticated and is listed under the local matching group. The local group's priviliges are:
-
User - System - Shell account access
-
WebCfg - All pages
I also tried adding all the privileges. But neither allows me to login using said user to the webGUI. I'm getting a "Username or Password incorrect" error. I feel like I'm missing something but I don't know what exactly.

you need to enable active directory as an Authentication Server.
Go to:
System - User Management
Settings tab
You will see Authentication Server, in the drop down select your ldap/ad server -
I see it. If I enable this, would I still be able to login as admin?
-
yes you will
