Active Directory authentication in EFW 2.51

[Guest]

Has anyone been able to get EFW 2.5.1 to connect to a Windows AD domain? I use this feature for my proxy authentication in 2.4.1 (one of the things that keeps me with Endian), but after trying an upgrade and a new install of 2.5.1, I can't get the box to connect to AD. (it's the same looking error as we had with 2.4.1, but using the same "fixes" doesn't resolve it)

Is it just me, or is this a feature which has been re-broken in the 2.5.1 update?

Same problem here, did you find the solution?

I had no issue with joining to a Small business server 2008 - Under Authentication tab set Windows AD (NTLM auth), filled out the realm (same as Domain of AD server), PDC = wins server, PDC ip = ip of wins server (BDC's blank) hit save.
on AD Join settings used domain netbios and admin: "NETBIOS\networkadmin" or "NETBIOS/networkadmin" or "networkadmin@domain.local" - sorry, can't remember which worked - and networkadmin password.
Went back to Authentication page and hit Join Domain

Hope it works for you.
