      Greetings and salutations.
      I searched the forums but I didn't find the answer (or anyone reporting the same issue as me)

      I set up OpenVPN and everything works well.
      my problem is when i try to access AD resources it prompts me for my full AD UID and pass.
      even tho the workstation is on the domain and works fine when in (not VPN) the network.
      typing in UID and pass fails, typing in domain\UID and password fails.
      I have to type in FQDN\UID and pass… then everything works.
      so i have to type in:
      vextor.net\johndoe
      cause vextor\johndoe doesn't work????

      i assume this is an AD issue but it works fine in the network just not via openVPN on PFsense

      So, here is my network setup:
      192.168.12.0/24 : main network behind pfSense
      192.168.12.1 : pfSense box 1.2.2 (LAN)
      192.168.12.2 : Server 2003 (active directory) (SP2)
      192.168.13.0/24 : Remote computer VPN  IP pool for VPN clients
      192.168.13.100: workstation connected via VPN

      From the VPN'ed workstation I can ping everything and get to internal network resources (workstations, Servers).
      again from local workstations there is no problem

      client
      dev tun
      proto udp
      remote vextor.net 1194
      ping 10
      resolv-retry 2
      nobind
      persist-key
      persist-tun
      ca ca.crt
      cert openvpn.crt
      key openvpn.key
      ns-cert-type server
      comp-lzo
      pull
      verb 1

      any ideas?

          have you set up NetBIOS properly in your pfsense openvpn settings? These should be set to your domain controller
