Hi,
Sometimes, on premises Windows Server is necessary, which often requires AD DS. Having on-premises AD DS is relatively complex.
Windows Server can't join Azure AD (only via hybrid Azure AD join).
Is there a way round this?
- Setup Azure AD.
- Setup Azure AD DS.
- Setup a Azure Windows Server VM that is joined to Azure AD DS.
- Now make this Azure Windows Server VM a VPN server, (RRAS | Always On | SSTP)
- Connect on premises Windows Server and Windows 10 to this VPN; from there, join to Azure AD DS.
- Now, you have the benefits of on premises AD DS, but without needing an on premises domain controller
It would look like this;
Here's the same graphic, but showing the Internet and Internet router;
Is this possible? Anyone tried?
