Authenticate Users and Groups against your Active Directory Services (Native Mode)

If the Appliance authenticates users and groups against your Active Directory Services, users and groups must be added, modified, and deleted on Active Directory server, not through ApplianceView. In addition, you will not be able to view user and group information through ApplianceView; users are simply authenticated against the Active Directory server when they attempt to connect to a share.

To authenticate users and groups against Active Directory Services:

1.Click Security, located on the Main Menu.

2.Select Security Mode:

3.Click the Modes tab.

4.Select Native mode.

5.Enter the names of your ADS Domain name (but not DNS domain name), Active Directory Services, Realm, KDC and your WINS Server in the appropriate fields. Your network administrator can provide this information. Additional information and answers for the recent ADS questions can be found in Storageflex Complete FAQ document in Appendix C.

6.Click Accept.
