Hello everyone 🙂!

I was wondering if any of you managed to make SSO work for SMB share with Platform SSO and Entra? (no jamf connect)
I found this documentation on Microsoft learning hub, but as i’m still a newbie i’m not sure how to implement it yet.

The idea is that i want to connect automatically to the share at the user login with SSO, for now it is manual and with the password which is not ideal if we want a passwordless environment.

Any tip is welcome, thank you for your help!!

We still use Apple’s Kerberos SSO extension. We are a similar shop as yours, but we are AD/Entra Hybrid. I’ll have to look into your link.

Once our users get a Kerberos ticket, they can mount SMB shares without a password prompt.

Thank you for the links!
I’m interested about your take on the PSSO alternative. Will wait for your feedback.

We’re reaping the benefits of PSSO. It elevates the user experience. I think because of our technology stack, we have to keep things the way they are for now. Meaning, I can’t fully migrate to PSSO alone.
