Hello, I wonder if it is possible to make the Active Directory authentication point to a base in SQL Server, where I have user and passwords. The point is that I have a user base and that all systems authenticate in it, I would like to use this same basis for authentication of users in the domain, because it would keep the same password in the applications and in AD.

It is not possible, because AD uses a base of its own, so the information is concentrated on this basis. However, it is possible to do the opposite. Just create an application adapt your applications to Single Sign On, IE, all login screens of your application, will be directed to a specific application and this application, will authenticate in AD.

Unfortunately, Active Directory cannot use a third party database. This way, you cannot configure it to use your own.
Looking quick, Active Directory has some things that programs can use to interact with AD. The Active Directory Service Interfaces (in English) would be a possible solution to contain your data and put them inside the AD to use it

You want to authenticate your users on a domain, or in an application?

The question is basically the following, I have several system and I have Active Directory, what I would like is that the user base of Active Directory was the same as the applications, because if the user exchanged the password in the application he could authenticate in the domain.

What if the user uses different passwords in different applications? Another thing, the idea of AD is to serve as a central repository of user information and authentication authority. It may be more productive to make applications use authentication with integrated security, so that the credentials are AD. If this is not ideal for your case, please edit the question to indicate this, so you will have better answers ;)

The user has only one password for all applications. I cannot use AD as a central repository of information. I would just like to know if it is possible to make AD use this ready-made user base.

edit the issue to include information that you cannot use AD authentication. Otherwise no one will see this information, as few people read the comments. If possible also indicate why you cannot use AD in your case.
