Windows Authentication
Specify this authentication when using the Windows domain controller to authenticate users who have their
accounts on the directory server. Users cannot be authenticated if they do not have their accounts in the
directory server. Under Windows authentication, you can specify the access limit for each group registered
in the directory server. The address book stored in the directory server can be registered to the machine,
enabling user authentication without first using the machine to register individual settings in the address
book. If you can obtain user information, the sender's address (From:) is fixed to prevent unauthorized
access when sending e-mails under the scanner function.
Operational Requirements for Windows Authentication
To specify Windows authentication, the following requirements must be met:
• This machine only supports NTLMv1 authentication.
• A domain controller has been set up in a designated domain.
• This function is supported by the operating systems listed below. To obtain user information when
running Active Directory, use LDAP. If SSL is being used, a version of Windows that supports TLS
v1, SSL v2, or SSL v3 is required.
• Windows NT 4.0 Server
• Windows 2000 Server
• Windows Server 2003
• During Windows Authentication, data registered in the directory server is automatically registered in
the machine. If user information on the server is changed, information registered in the machine may
be overwritten when authentication is performed.
• If you have created a new user in the domain controller and selected "User must change password
at next logon", log on to the machine from the computer to change the password before logging on
from the machine's control panel.
• Remember that the login user names and passwords are case-sensitive.
• The first time you access the machine, you can use the functions available to your group. If you are
not registered in a group, you can use the functions available under [*Default Group]. To limit which
functions are available to which users, first make settings in advance in the address book.
• When accessing the machine subsequently, you can use all the functions available to your group and
to you as an individual user.
• Users who are registered in multiple groups can use all the functions available to those groups.
• A user registered in two or more global groups can use all the functions available to members of those
groups.
