How to add users using the Active Directory and enable windows auth

Hi Guys,

I am trying to add users to CentraSite through the use of our Corporate Directory. I am struggling to find and enable this capability. The documentation doesn’t help much or i haven’t found the right/appropriate content.

Thanks,

Spha

Hi,
what parts are you missing ?

I’d recommend to start with these doc sections:
http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite8-2_sp2/CentraSite/8-2-SP2_CentraSite/ag-authent/authconfig.htm#authconfig
http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite8-2_sp2/CentraSite/8-2-SP2_CentraSite/ag-authent/ldapconf.htm#ldapconf

For AD access you should use LDAP as well, as the local OS + ADSI modes are deprecated.

Thanks Dan,

To be honest it’s my first time using the tool and this is a fairly technical requirement so the guidance I need is very much a step by step approach. To a different and more ‘configurations’ knowledgable audience the documentation may be very useful but to me, its greek to say the least.

Hi
On the empower support web site you will find a tool which interactively walks you through the config steps.
The tool is called SSXLDAPValidator

Let me know if you can’t find it and I’ll post you the link
