CHAPTER 3: NT AUTHENTICATION SETUP JOIN THE NT DOMAIN

Information should only be entered in the NT Authentication Server Details frame if the R3000 will use the NT Authenti- cation method to authenticate users.

NOTE: The following Windows servers are supported by the

current version of authentication: NT 4.0 SP4 or later, Mixed Mode 2000, and 2003. A Windows 2003 server may require changes to the default settings for SMB signing to allow commu- nications.

The account that is provided for accessing the Windows server must have the administrative rights to add a machine account to the specified domain on the R3000. This require- ment ensures the R3000 will be able to authenticate users from the Windows domain.

1.Enter the alphanumeric Name of Domain on which this server resides, using capital letters.

2.Using capital letters, enter up to 15 alphanumeric charac- ters of the PDC NetBIOS Name, which is the computer name of the authentication server, or Primary Domain Controller.

3.Enter the PDC IP Address, which is the authentication server's IP address.

4.Enter the Administrator Username and Administrator Password. This account used for joining the domain must have administrator privileges.

5.Click Join Domain to save your entries and to submit a request for the R3000 to join the domain.

TIP: If entries in the NT Authentication Server Details frame are modified after joining the domain, you must join the domain again.

NOTE: Click Save if you are only pre-configuring the box. This option lets you save credentials without re-entering the informa- tion each time the domain is joined, or if the R3000 gets out of sync with the Primary Domain Controller.
