AD and 9.2.1.5

[Jim E.]

After following several guides for getting FreeNAS 9.2.1.5 joined to an Active Directory domain and still not being able to get the Directory Services started, I thought I would post here to get some help.

The most notable guides that I've followed are:

The CIFS service is running but the Directory Services service will not start no matter how many times I try. Is there anywhere that I can look (e.g. logs) to get an idea of what is causing the service to not be able to start?

The 4th (or 5th?) post (the last one of the how-to basically) points out this particular issue you're dealing with

The fix can be found here: https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/4874 - there's a text file to download to your FreeNAS server that you need to chmod +x and then run, which will fix your CIFS & Active Directory service starting issue.
