Domain Security Mode
►
D O M A I N / A D S A U T H E N T I C A T I O N
If you choose the Domain security mode option, you will need to create a trusted relationship with
the domain controller or the active directory server (ADS) that will act as the authentication server
for the ReadyNAS device. You will need the following information:
Domain name
Domain administrator login
Domain administrator password
DNS name of the ADS realm (if using ADS)
You can elect to have the ReadyNAS automatically auto-detect the domain controller, or you can
specify the IP address. Sometimes auto-detect will fail, and you will need to supply the IP address of
the domain controller to join the domain.
If you have a large number of users in your domain, you may need to deselect the
Display users
from trusted domains
… checkbox. Otherwise, FrontView management system may slow down
to an unusable state.
Note
Use of the ReadyNAS in a domain environment with more than 1000 users
is not recommended at this time.
