February 27, 20242 yr I'm running an ASRock X299 Taichi CLX motherboard on the current version of UnRAID. Last night, something happened, and my entire network was kaput. Eventually, I realized that the problem was coming from the UnRAID server - unplugging it restored my network. The machine was unresponsive, so I did a power-off reset. Since then, the 2.5gb LAN adapter on the motherboard seems non-functional. If I plug it in, there are no lights on either side of the connection. Related to the problem I reported here, I can't log into the console directly without a network connection. Thankfully, typing "shutdown" at the login prompt does give a clean shutdown. I have no idea how to proceed here. It seems apparent that trying to use UnRAID in a Active Directory Domain is a mistake. Any help would be appreciated. Edited February 27, 20242 yr by bithoarder

February 27, 20242 yr Community Expert Do you mean you cannot login on the CLI locally? If yes why not?

Without a network connection, I can't get past the "login" prompt - this seems to be a very unfortunate side effect of joining the server to a Windows domain.

Please see the last problem I had, here, for background. I can type as much as I want at the "login" prompt, and it appears on screen, but while "Enter" shows a carriage return, UnRAID will not accept the input. Once I added the UnRAID server to my Domain, I became unable to log in without it being connected to the network. I'm running on different hardware now, but that challenge has remained.

February 27, 20242 yr Author Solution I worked around this by adding another NIC. I'm realizing now that my earlier problem was pinpointed, but not solved. It's still a problem, apparently... I may have to take this machine back out of the domain if this is how things are supposed to work. Ideally, I'd like for the UnRAID server to replace my Domain Controller, but I've had some false starts with the LDAP setup. Thanks!
