Single Sign-On - Dell iDRAC7 User Manual

The Active Directory is configured for a domain present in Windows Server 2008 Active Directory. A child or sub domain
is present for the domain, the user and group is present in the same child domain, and the user is a member of that
group. When trying to log in to iDRAC7 using the user present in the child domain, Active Directory Single Sign-On login
fails.
This may be because of the an incorrect group type. There are two kinds of Group types in the Active Directory server:
• Security — Security groups allow you to manage user and computer access to shared resources and to filter group
policy settings.
• Distribution — Distribution groups are intended to be used only as email distribution lists.
Always make sure that the group type is Security. You cannot use distribution groups to assign permission on any
object, however use them to filter group policy settings.
