Domain controller server compatibility
SonicWALL Directory Services Connector is supported for use with domain controllers running the following
operating systems:
•
Windows Server 2012 — 64-bit
•
Windows Server 2012 R2 — 64-bit
•
Windows Server 2012 R2 — 64-bit
•
Windows Server 2012 — 32/64-bit
•
Windows Server 2012 R2 — 32/64-bit
NOTE:
It is recommended to run the SSO Agent service using a domain administrator account. An account
with fewer permissions, such as a domain user account, does have sufficient privileges for all service
components to interact with the domain controller.

Windows systems running the following operating systems:
•
Windows Server 2012 — 64-bit

On all Windows 32-bit and 64-bit servers, a .NET Framework must be installed. The following versions of.NET
Framework are supported:
•
.NET Framework 2.0 and above
The following Microsoft Windows operating systems are not supported as servers:
•
Windows 2000 – All versions
NOTE:
Windows Server 2008 and higher or Windows 7 and higher are recommended.
Limitations:
The following limitations exist in Windows operating systems prior to Windows Server 2008 or Windows 7:
•
Certain Windows API elements are not supported, including the Event Subscription API for
communicating with the domain controller. This requires Directory Services Connector to use the WMI
event subscription mechanism on older Windows versions, which is much slower than an event
subscription.
•
The SMB2 protocol is not supported on older Windows versions.
•
Single Sign-On related functions could operate at approximately half the performance on older Windows
versions.
