title: ASP.NET Core 1.1 - Windows Authentication using Login screen (MVC view)
body: <p>I am working on ASP.NET Core 1.1 - MVC application. I need to authenticate windows users using Login screen(mvc view). I need to use
  Active Directory to authenticate users.</p>
  
  <p>I found wonderful article, 
  <a href="http://tech.trailmax.info/2016/03/using-owin-and-active-directory-to-authenticate-users-in-asp-net-mvc-5-application/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://tech.trailmax.info/2016/03/using-owin-and-active-directory-to-authenticate-users-in-asp-net-mvc-5-application/</a> 
  I downloaded the sample app and sample itself works great. But I as I need to implement this with .net core 1.1, it does not support 
  System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement and Microsoft.Owin.Security.Cookies, Microsoft.Owin.Host.SystemWeb nuget packages.
  so it does not seem this solution will work for me.</p>
  
  <p>I investigated more and found Novell.Directory.Ldap.NETStandard (<a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45573144/asp-net-core-and-on-premise-ad-authentication">ASP.NET Core and on premise AD authentication</a>) which works for active directory users validation (.net core 1.1)</p>
  
  <p>I also found Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.ActiveDirectory (middleware.github.com/OneBitSoftware/Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.ActiveDirectory)</p>
  
  <p>One more, AspNetCoreActiveDirectoryStarterKit (github.com/WinLwinOoNet/AspNetCoreActiveDirectoryStarterKit)</p>
  
  <p>Is there any other way I can achieve this? Anybody has experience using above mentioned options and suggest me the good one?
  Please suggest.</p>
