I have a small business atm and wanna upgrade it to windows 10 next year.

My businesshas: 6 computers(win 7) with 5 users and a NAS server.

Problem: I want every user be able to login on every computer with all his directories and be able to continue his work.

Solution so far: I set up every user on every PC and made all their user directory's directing to the NAS server. but u all may guess what a pain it is to set this up... especially if a user is joining/leaving the team....

Research i done: hours of asking google the wrong questions and checking out Windows server editions......

so i look for a better solution or any advice pls help me :)

thx in advance!

What you have done and are using is commonly called workgroup mode, where each client needs to authenticate with username and password (which is usually done by adding each user account to each server/NAS).

The alternative would be domain mode, which requires and Active Directory domain controller. This can be any Windows server running Windows Server 2000, 2003, 2008, 2008R2, 2012, 2012R2 or 2016 (licensing costs apply); or a Unix/Linux server running Samba 4.0 and newer (licenses usually free).
