Hi,
A user is trying to have DataMiner in one domain and have the LDAP query another domain for user authentication.
I found that in order to achieve this, it was necessary to add a trust between the domain where DataMiner is and the domain of the users to be added, the reason being that when DataMiner validates the users, it checks for identity (which requires a trust) and not username/password.
Is this information accurate?
Are there any more details that need to be taken into account when installing the trust?
Is there any additional configuration that needs to be done on the DataMiner side?
Thank you for the help.
Hi Joao,
It's correct that when your dataminer server is part of a domain, but you wish to authenticate users which are part of a different domain, a trust needs to be established between the two different domain controllers.
Next to this, you'll need to define the IP/hostname of the domain controller in the System settings > LDAP section of the system center module, informing dataminer to retrieve user information from this remote LDAP server.
Please find a detailed description in the LDAP help section (link).
Noted, thank you Ive.
