#Unraid setup tower login update#

The default permissions are now that all Domain Users have RW access to every file, we will update that in the next step. I used my everyday AD login account as the initial owner and Domain Admin as the initial group (I know thats lazy) and press Apply. Press Join and you should see the text change from “Not Joined” to “Joined”. I am using the Microsoft domain info, change to your domain info. Next we will go to the Active Directory Settings tab in that same page. Next, in the unRAID WebGUI navigate to Settings -> SMB and change the dropdown to (Yes – Active Directory) and press “Apply”. Stop the array so that we can change the SMB settings to AD from the Main page. Now that we have DNS setup we can join unRAID to the domain. This is done through the unRAID WebGUI under Settings -> Network Settings . Update the DNS Server 1 box with the IP Address of your DNS server. UnRAID needs to be pointed at your Windows Server that runs DNS and AD.

Create groups in domain for centralized management.

I am also assuming you already have a Window Server setup with: DNS and Active Directory (AD) roles, and a functioning domain.

After lots of searching around on the forums and PMing a few users I’ve consolidated my findings into this post. UnRAID has long had the capability to integrate itself into Active Directory for centralized permission and user management but this process has never been fully documented.
