AUTHENTICATION NOTES

Only one authentication method can be used per user, but different users can have different authentication methods. That means you can have some users log in using AD user authentication, while other users log in using local user authentication.

Active Directory User Authentication vs. Local User Authentication

  • Even when you are using AD User Authentication, you must create users in the Management Console and assign privileges to them using the Men & Mice access system.
  • The only difference between AD vs. local user authentication is that when AD user authentication is used, users are authenticated using the AD User Authentication system before they can access the Management Console.
  • When AD User Authentication is used, the user password is not stored in the Men & Mice software.
  • AD user authentication using Active Directory is only possible when you run Men & Mice Central on a Windows machine (Windows 2003/2008).
