4If DHCP is disabled on the iDRAC6 or you want manually to input your DNS IP address, type the following RACADM commands:

racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServersFromDHCP 0

racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServer1 <primary DNS IP address>

racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServer2 <secondary DNS IP address>

5If you want to configure a list of user domains so that you only need to enter the user name during login to the Web-based interface, type the following command:

racadm config -g cfgUserDomain -o cfgUserDomainName -i <index>

Up to 40 user domains can be configured with index numbers between 1 and 40.

See "Generic LDAP Directory Service" on page 178 for details about user domains.

Testing Your Configurations

If you want to verify whether your configuration works, or if you need to diagnose the problem with your failed Active Directory login, you can test your settings from the iDRAC6 Web-based interface.

After you finish configuring settings in the iDRAC6 Web-based interface, click Test Settings at the bottom of the page. You will be required to enter a test user's name (for example, username@domain.com) and password to run the test. Depending on your configuration, it may take some time for all of the test steps to complete and display the results of each step. A detailed test log will display at the bottom of the results page.

If there is a failure in any step, examine the details in the test log to identify the problem and a possible solution. For most common errors, see "Frequently Asked Questions about Active Directory" on page 183.

If you need to make changes to your settings, click the Active Directory tab and change the configuration step-by-step.
