Enabling and Disabling Microsoft NT Domain Security
The administrator can, at any time, turn on or off NT domain security. If NT domain security is on and
the appliance cannot communicate with the domain controller over the network, users will not be able to
print using the appliance. The administrator can turn off NT domain security, which would enable users
to continue printing although no security will be enforced. To disable NT domain security, access the
Microsoft Networking Settings page
, and make sure the box for "
Enable NT Domain Authentication
" is
not checked.
The administrator accounts on the appliance are locally managed administrator accounts and are always
accessible through the web interface.
Granting Access or Authority to Users and Groups
On the Printer Properties -
Security page
, assign domain users and/or groups
appropriate access
for that
printer. The NT Users/Groups list box contains all of the group or user names within the selected NT
domain. Select from this list to grant access to the printer and click Add. After the group has been
granted access, its name will be moved from the NT Users/Groups list box to the Current Assignments
list box.
The web passwords for the administrator accounts are stored on the appliance and are NOT synchronized
with the NT domain controller, even if the administrator account is identical to the name of a user in the
domain. Since the password used for web-based administration is sent over the network in clear text, it
should be different from the one used for the NT domain.
When NT domain authentication is not enabled, an administrator account must be configured through the
web interface using the same name and password as the account used to log into the NT or Windows 2K
workstation from which the native tools will be launched.
