      Azure AD requires Windows 10. Because NTG stays up to date, we get big features sometimes decades ahead of other companies. Little things like allowing an old version of Windows to linger can have massive repercussions that are not well understood when companies evaluate cost and risk.

        Hence the Fog project, also looking at visiting all sites over the next few months to do refresh and tidy up. So maybe Windows 10 could be included.

          Look forward to reading. Will look more closely at Azure AD maybe instead of migrating our 2003 AD onto a 2012 machine.

          @scottalanmiller Do you know if Azure Sync works with 2003? If not, and you don't want to have to manually recreate all of the users in Azure, you would have to upgrade your AD anyway.

            I definitely do not know. My guess is that it does not. I would guess, but am purely guessing, that 2008 and newer will work. We did it with 2012 R2. Obviously that works 🙂

            If you have more than a handful of users and do not already have Office 365 then one option is to do a temporary update to 2012 R2, sync and then drop 2012 R2.

              Yeah, but if you don't already have a license, that's not a cheap solution either. choices choices.

                @GregoryHall or @PSX_Defector probably know the answer to this one. It might be as simple as "2003 works."

                  We do have all our users being Sync'd to Office365 at the moment with the sync tool, would that work?

                    Then you've already got Azure AD and just don't know it.

                      I guess that answers that question - yes it works with 2003

                        Azure AD is what Office 365 uses behind the scenes. O365 hosted products are all on Azure.
