Active Directory domain mapping

Domain Access

In the Domain Access section, specify the login user name and password of an account

with read rights for the Active Directory database (any user account within the domain

can be used, unless blocked).

Click Advanced to set parameters for communication with domain servers:

It is possible to let WinRoute connect automatically to a specified server or to

search for a domain server. The automatic connection to the first server available

increases reliability of the connection and eliminates problems in cases when

a domain controller fails. The other option (specification of a controller) is rec-

ommended for domains with one server only (speeds the process up).

Encrypted connection — to increase security of the communication with the

domain server, encrypted connection can be used (thus, the traffic cannot be

tapped). In such a case, encrypted connection must be enabled at the domain

server. For details, refer to documents regarding the corresponding operating

system.
