4. Enable any of the following authentication options, as
pertinent to your environment:
• If using LDAP authentication and workstation profiles,
click “On” in the Map Workstation Name Across All
Domain Labels frame to enable the Web Filter to
search other domain labels if it can’t find the worksta-
tion’s NetBIOS name under a specified domain label,
based on the user’s full Distinguished Name.
• In the M86 Authenticator frame, be sure the M86
Authenticator is “On”—unless the Novell eDirectory
Agent option will be used instead. When enabling the
M86 Authenticator option, and then downloading and
installing the M86 Authenticator for Windows (authen-
ticat.exe) on a network share accessible by the domain
controller or a Novell eDirectory server, the M86
Authenticator automatically authenticates the end user
when he/she logs into his/her workstation. If down-
loading the M86 Authenticator for Apple (Authenti-
cator), an Open Directory server should be used. The
end user will be automatically authenticated when
logging into the workstation.
• If you have a Novell eDirectory server and the M86
Authenticator will not be used, turning “On” Novell
eDirectory Agent will enable end user logon and logoff
events to be logged. To use this option, the LDAP
domain must be set up and activated in the Policy tree.
WARNING
: When enabling Novell eDirectory Agent, the agent
will immediately begin scanning Novell eDirectory-based domain
labels.
• If using a Windows 2000 or Windows 2003 server for
authentication, the Active Directory Agent option can
be used for capturing end user logon and logoff events
and sending a session table to the Web Filter so end
users receive the correct filtering profile. To use this
