  • NoMADLogin-AD

    Discontinued Login to an AD user account without binding your Mac to AD.

  • NoMAD-2

    Discontinued A complete ground-up rewrite of NoMAD utilizing the same AD Auth Framework found in NoMAD Login.

    • K-12 (or higher ed) and shared labs would be my guess. It's really not that bad though, maybe if you had FV2 enabled, but that wouldn't really make sense on a shared computer. To OP - I have close to 500 Macs on Ventura using NoMAD / Login in labs, with 0 issues. Jamf didn't really 'kill it off' - in fact they're still developing NoMAD 2 - https://github.com/jamf/NoMAD-2 - though I don't really have any experience with that. XCreds changed their licensing model so that the latest version is only available as source code. You'd have to package and I believe notarize it yourself. Doable, but more effort than some people would like to spend. You basically buy the precompiled version with a license now. If you buy enough licenses you get better support. XCreds is absolutely dirt cheap compared to Jamf Connect. I'm trying to go the XCreds route myself. NoMAD still *works* but there's no support and it could break anytime. You can't beat free, and it's been great for us for years, saved lots of money. I've been in contact with Tim to get XCreds working with our third-party IdP / SSO (ClassLink).
