Automatic Active Directory Account Mapping

Hi there,

We are strongly considering purchasing your product, and are deciding between your Secure edition and Enterprise edition. We like the LDAP support on the enterprise, but I'm having a hard time justifying paying an extra $500 for it. It doesn't do a whole lot besides allow you to use the AD password.

What would make it worth it, is an automatic process that would convert & sync an AD account to a local user account. At bare minimum, it would copy the user's home directory in AD. I would also like to see read/write permissions synced.

If this is already planned for a future update, I think we will go ahead and purchase the Enterprise edition. Please let me know if this is a priority to you, so we can make our decision.

Thanks!
Matt

I think it is impossible to convert & sync an AD account to a local user account, because you can't read user password from Active directory.
