  • I run AD at home but it’s because my job is in enterprise software engineering and so running these programs in my home lab requires AD integrations. It’s also needed for HyperV and SCVMM along with things like SQL server auth and GMSA which I can’t get out of testing. Ironically most of my work is in open source/Linux but Windows servers are all over the Enterprise so I don’t have a choice but to run this stuff. No real users on it and just used for the lab.

    I did this in 2004 for public info stations at a university. My methods are extremely dated but I did a baseline Linux deployment (original Redhat 9 I think) with KDE desktop and had it boot to a single full screen kiosk mode Firefox (maybe it was Konqueror hard to tell). From there I had a website with a UI that supported easy use via touchscreen. The keyboard mappings were all disabled for KDE so everything had to be done via local or SSH terminal. Doesn’t work for you but it was a fun project. More of fun nostalgia for me.
