Get groups of an Active Directory user from outside the domain

[CAPTIC_LA]

Hi everybody,

I'm an industrial engineer used to deal with sensors and signal acquisition but not to networking.

Until now, when developping applications we used local anonymous "user access levels" with passwords to access different functions in our application.

But now, one of our main customers wants our application to use Active Directory login.

I found some pieces of code quite easily to do so :

All of this work fine if the computer is a member of the domain, but as soon as the computer is outside the Domain, then it is still possible to validate credentials but getting the groups of which a user belongs does not work anymore...

And we really need the computer (that is running on a production line) to stay outside the domain to avoid applying "heavy networking strategy"...

Does anyone can help?

Thanks

Lionel

Hi,

Can you try migrating the database from your main Domain to the production line domain and see if it works with this domain directly ?

Kind regards,

Hi Idriss38

Thanks for your answer.

This is more the competence of the local IT department, and I guess they prefer that we adapt to their system, but I will keep in mind your idea.
