32.2.3 Username/Password (eDirectory and Active Directory)
When using Username/Password authentication with a Novell eDirectory or Microsoft Active
Directory user source, if the credentials the user specifies to log in to the workstation or to the
domain match the ZENworks login credentials, the ZENworks login dialog box does not display and
the user is authenticated to the ZENworks Management Zone.
The username and password are also stored in Secret Store. If a user later logs in to ZENworks
where no username or password is available (for example, the user logged in using a smart card), the
stored credentials are used and the ZENworks login dialog box is bypassed.
Enabling Username/Password Authentication While Adding a User Source
You can enable Username/Password authentication while adding a user source. For more
information see
Section 31.2.1, “Adding User Sources,” on page 258 .

Mechanisms in the General section.
