So I have all my Linux machines configured so that I can log in with the same username/password which is administered by a central server which also holds an NFS file share so that the home directory is consistent across all machines (user login is nis/ldap). Currently I've got a desktop working with a Windows/Linux dual-boot, but Windows is isolated all on its own. The NIS/LDAP login on the linux machine works and mounts the NFS home directory, but with Windows I have to use a windows login and password which I don't like... I also don't have a consistent home directory between Linux and Windows. Force-mapping the nfs file share into windows for all to use is not an option. Is there a way to get Windows 10 to use the same login credentials as the Linux users across the network and also have a consistent home directory? If possible, I'd like to avoid having to reconfigure the Server if at all possible. (Windows 10 client) (Arch Linux clients) (CentOS 7 server)
