Figure 8.27: Add User Group Wizard - Select Authentication Service Window
The Select Authentication Service window will contain a list of the names of all authentication
servers that may be used to authenticate the DSView user group when the DSView user logs in.
NOTE: If multiple external authentication services are configured in your system, they will appear in the Select
Authentication Service window.
Authentication servers may be of the following types:
• Active Directory - An external authentication service (purchased separately)
• DSView Internal - The internal DSView software authentication service that validates
users against database tables in the DSView management software host. The DSView
Internal authentication service is always available.
NOTE:The DSView Internal authentication service is delivered with your DSView software and does not have to
be added to your system.
• LDAP - An external authentication service (purchased separately)
• NT - An external authentication service (purchased separately). The NT authentication
service requires the Microsoft Win32 platform.
See Adding an external authentication service on page 74 for information on adding an
authentication service.
