    Hi kkontney,

     

    Welcome to the community! :smileyhappy:

     

    Have you tried to enable NetBios on the VPN Policy of both sites?  Kindly refer to the image below:

    Hope these steps will help you join Domain/Active Directory over VPN:

     

    A. On the Main Site:

     

    1. Get the search base.  On the image below, Windows Server 2003 has been used.  Take note that users are already created in the Active Directory.

    2. Enable LDAP information on the SRX5308.  On the image below, the LDAP Server is set to 192.168.3.150 (AD).

    B. On the Remote Site:

     

    1. On the PC/s on the remote site, it should be a member of the Domain Name.  On the image below, the Domain Name created is "training2.com.

    2. Set Static DNS Servers.  Take note that the Preferred DNS server is the IP Address of the Domain Controller while the Alternate DNS Server is the Default Gateway Address of the PC connected to the SRX5308.  On the image below,  192.168.3.150 is the IP Address of the Domain Controller while 192.168.3.254 is the  Default Gateway Address of the PC connected to the SRX5308.

    3. The PC/s on the remote site will reboot. After it reboots, you will login as the new user using the username and password created on the AD.  The user should be able to access the shares or files that are saved in the Domain Controller from the PC/s on the remote site. 

     

    Hope this helps! :smileyhappy:
