Integrating Linux Desktops with Active Directory

Multiple solutions exist to integrate Linux distributions with Microsoft Active Directory (AD). Horizon Agent for Linux has no dependency on which solution is used.

Note: For ease of deployment, if available for your Linux distribution, use System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) Authentication.

The following solutions are known to work for a Linux virtual machine running Horizon Agent.

  • OpenLDAP Pass-through Authentication supports integration with Active Directory for desktops running any Linux distribution supported by Horizon Agent.

    Note: For OpenLDAP Pass-through Authentication, you can perform the configuration in a template virtual machine. No additional steps are required in the cloned virtual machines.

  • System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) Authentication supports offline domain join with Active Directory for instant-cloned desktops running any Linux distribution supported by Horizon Agent.

  • PowerBroker Identity Services Open (PBISO) Authentication supports offline domain join with Active Directory for instant-cloned desktops running Ubuntu.

  • Samba supports offline domain join with Active Directory for instant-cloned desktops running any Linux distribution supported by Horizon Agent. However, we recommend using SSSD Authentication instead.
