Hey all, sorry for the low level question, but basically I'm looking for the easiest way to set up something like a Windows AD. This would be for something like 10 computers at a local church where I do a lot of their infrastructure work. Is also be interested in sound something similar on my home network, but a while directory is probably overkill. And any suggestions on learnings or other suggestions appreciated!

Right, so the church itself has no idea what they want/need. I'm basically doing all this set up for free, just so I can say I've done it. What I was really hoping for was authentication, but also group policy management and file share. Thanks for the response!

Non profits qualify for 10 free business premium licenses with MS. Hopefully a Linux cloud provider has something similar. You don’t want to have to go back to the church every week right?

The church being a nonprofit organization may be able to get GSuite for a super low cost or free.
