Hi everyone! You have found your way to the repo for **NoMAD Login AD**, or NoLoAD for short. This project can be seen as a companion to our other AD authentication product for macOS, [NoMAD](https://nomad.menu). You can use either one independently from each other, and both contain all the bits and pieces you need to talk to AD.

NoLoAD is a replacement login window for macOS 10.12 and higher. **(Currently there are known performance issues with 10.12)** It allows you to login to a Mac using Active Directory accounts, without the need to bind the Mac to AD and suffer all the foibles that brings.

## Known issues
|
|
|
When logging in on 10.12, the first login for a newly created user may take a long time. Like several minutes long. We are working with Apple to understand why as it happens with users created with NoLoAD or System Preferences and it does not occur on 10.13.
|
|
|
## What's new in 1.0.1
|
|
|
* Added workarounds and advice for users on macOS Sierra (#21)
