120 Frequently Asked Questions
11
Does an Underscore character in the domain name cause Server Admin
login issues?
Yes, an underscore character in the domain name is invalid. All other
special characters (except the hyphen) are invalid too. Use only case-
insensitive alphabets and numerals.
12
How does checking/unchecking the 'Active Directory' on the login page
of Server Administrator impact privilege levels?
If you do not select the Active Directory check box, you will only have
access that is configured in the Microsoft Active Directory. You cannot log
in using the Dell Extended Schema Solution in Microsoft Active
Directory. This solution enables you to provide access to Server
Administrator; allowing you to add/control Server Administrator users and
privileges to existing users in your Active Directory software. For more
information see "Using Microsoft Active Directory" in the
Dell
OpenManage Server Administrator Installation Guide
.

What actions do I follow while performing Kerberos authentication and
trying to login from Web Server?
For authentication, the contents of the files
/etc/pam.d/openwsman
and
/etc/pam.d/sfcb
, on the managed node, must be replaced with:
For 32-bit:
auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so
account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
For 64-bit:
auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
