displayed but they can find out their role after they have logged in by going to their Preferences. See Editing user preferences.

Note: Before changing authentication mode to LDAP, a site manager must add at least one LDAP group or user with the site manager role to the Content Server. Under LDAP authentication, local users (that is user accounts set up through the web interface for Windows Server administration on the Content Server machine) including the local administrator cannot log in using the login dialog. However, the local administrator can log in by adding #page:login&rescue:true to the end of the Content Server URL in the browser: http://<ContentServerIPaddress>/tcs/#page:login&rescue:true.

Active Directory and your Content Server is in the same domain as your groups and users

1.Go to Management settings > Site settings. See Configuring site settings.

2.For Authentication mode select Domain.

3.So that the Content Server can obtain group information, enter the details of your LDAP server or servers.

4.Go to Management settings > Groups and users. See Adding and updating groups & users.

5.Add the domain groups or users to the Content Server in the format group.name or DOMAINNAME (optional)\user.name: Display Name(optional)>, and assign the correct Role (Viewer, Creator or Site manager).

o If Allow Guest Access is enabled in Site settings, you need to manually add all the groups and users who you want to log in. If a user does not exist on the Content Server before they attempt to log in for the first time, but a group to which they belong does, their account will be created automatically and they will be given the role of viewer. When the user logs in, their role will be whichever is higher of their group role or their individual user role.

o If Allow Guest Access is turned off in Site settings, you only need to add the groups and users who need a role higher than viewer (that is, creators or site managers). If a user does not exist on the Content Server before they attempt to log in for the first time (regardless of whether there is a group added to the Content Server that they are a member of), their account will be created automatically and they will be given the role of viewer. When the user logs in, their role will be whichever is higher of their group role or their individual user role.

6.All users and all members of the added groups now automatically have access to the Content Server using their normal Active Directory username and password. Groups and users who have been added to the Content Server are listed in the Displaying the Groups & users list: go to Management settings > Groups and users. Their role is displayed next to the name. Note that users may have inherited a higher role from their group membership than the one displayed but they can find out their role after they have logged in by going to their Preferences. See Editing user preferences.
