Use this dialog box to add or edit an Active Directory domain controller.
NetBIOSName
The NetBIOS name of the domain, for example, mydomain.

If Use Secure LDAP is enabled, the domain name is the name of the domain controller, for example, host.domain.company.com.
User Account
Click Edit to enter the user account information for the domain. If your CommServe host is a member of the domain controller, you can enter LocalSystemAccount and leave the password blank instead of a domain user account. If you are using a domain user account, the account must have at least read access to the domain. Consider using a service account instead of an employee account to prevent disruptions if the employee account is disabled.
Resource Domain
If you have an Active Directory Resource domain, you can register it with the CommServe so that users in the Admin domain can access the resources in the Resource domain. (The Admin domain contains the user credentials for all users. The Resource domain includes the resources or applications that can be accessed by each user in the Admin domain.)
Enable SSO
Automatically logs users on to the CommCell Console and Web Console.
Use Secure LDAP
Enable the secure Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) for additional network security with the external domain. Important: This can only be enabled when the external domain is configured to use the secure LDAP.
