Hello ganesh_karale,

 

I found this solution. Can you tell us if it helps, please?

 

To add a remote workgroup user to a domain while they are connected to the head office (HO) network using FortiSASE SPA, you would generally follow these steps:

  1. Ensure Connectivity: Confirm that the remote user is properly connected to the HO network through FortiSASE SPA. This may involve checking VPN settings or any specific configurations required for FortiSASE.

  2. Access Domain Controller: You will need access to the domain controller where the user accounts are managed. This might require remote desktop access or management tools that allow you to interact with the domain controller.

  3. Create User Account:

    • Open the Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC) console on the domain controller.
    • Right-click on the appropriate organizational unit (OU) where you want to create the user.
    • Select "New" > "User" and fill in the required details (username, password, etc.).
    • Set the user properties as needed, including group memberships and permissions.

  4. Configure Remote Access: If the user needs specific permissions or access to certain resources, ensure that these are configured in their user profile.

  5. Notify the User: Once the account is created, inform the user of their new credentials and any steps they need to take to log into the domain. They may need to restart their device or re-establish their connection to the network.

  6. Testing: Have the user log in to ensure that their account is functioning correctly and that they have access to the necessary resources.
