Your on-premise or Azure Active Directory should be the source of truth for user credentials for your Windows and Linux systems alike.
Linux can delegate user authentication to Active Directory or Azure Active Directory, completely removing the need to laboriously manage local Linux user accounts.
Logging in once to your workstation will grant you access to all your Linux systems. Saves both your keyboard and nerves.
You can determine who can access which Linux systems by defining access control rules in Active Directory.
This feature is not available for Azure Active Directory integration.
Free up your time to do something useful with your Linux systems instead of managing their credentials or worrying about login credentials of employees that quit.
Linux AD Integration by Puppeteers
Service that joins your Linux systems to on-premise or Azure Activate Directory within 1 week.
WHAT
We use our automation code to join your Linux systems to Active Directory or Azure Active Directory
WHY
Integration without automation is error-prone and has a high maintenance fee
HOW
You provide SSH access to the Linux systems and we do the rest
Your Linux systems continue to be isolated and harder than necessary to manage. That may or may not be an option for you.
Buy from somewhere else
There are surely other companies who could provide you with this service. After you've found somebody you're unlikely to see a fixed price, money-back guarantee or a streamlined delivery process that takes only a week in total. Contract negotiations tend to take 1,5-2 weeks based on our experience, as opposed to reading our terms of service which takes about 5 minutes.
Do it yourself
If you wish to pursue this route we recommend following Red Hat's official documentation on direct Active Directory integration using sssd. Then just repeat the process on every Linux system you wish to integrate.
We do not recommend doing indirect FreeIPA integration yourself, unless you're willing to invest lots of time in it. FreeIPA is great, but like all complex systems there's a steep learning curve.
