PfSense CP + MS-AD

Hi,

How do I get Microsoft AD users to log into the Captive Portal ?

Thanks.

To the best of my knowledge, you have to use a Radius server as a broker between the AD domain and the captive portal. You can either set up an MS Radius server tied to your Windows environment or possibly set up a FreeRadius server to handle authentication requests on behalf of the domain.

Thanks.

pfsense.org, Why did you put an LDAP for Microsoft Active Directory, and enable us to select OU's and not enable us to use it for Captive Portal, THAT IS JUST NOT FAIR.

(PLEASE fix the Captive Portal to use AD-Groups and/or OU for logins)

Thanks.

One other thing:

pfSense 2.3.1 i386

my CP custom login page no longer works unless I remove, the information that you said is needed -
$PORTAL_ACTION$
$PORTAL_REDIRURL$
$PORTAL_ZONE$

none of the above variables work.

eg:


 <title>C-NAME Wireless Internet Access Point</title>

## C-NAME Wireless Internet Access Point

Welcome! Please supply **Either** your Username & Passowrd **Or** your Voucher Number below.

<form method="post" action="$PORTAL_ACTION$">

| **Username:** |  |
| **Password:** |  |
| **Voucher Number:** |  |
|   |
| 

      |

</form>

this is the code that works:


<title>C-NAME Wireless Internet Access Point</title>

## C-NAME Wireless Internet Access Point

Welcome! Please supply **Either** your Username & Passowrd **Or** your Voucher Number below.

<form method="post" action="http://10.10.1.1:8002/index.php?zone=C-NAME">

| **Username:** |  |
| **Password:** |  |
| **Voucher Number:** |  |
|   |
| 

      |

</form>

Please fix this problem.
