D-Link DNS-346 USER'S MANUAL
Configuring the DNS-346 to work in a Active Directory
If your network is configured in an Active Directory make sure the following conditions are true:
 Ensure that the Time and Date is synchronized between the DNS-346 and the Windows 2003
Active Directory server. The DNS-346 and Active Directory server will only tolerate a
maximum time difference of 5 minutes.
 Ensure that you can get the IP address of the 2003 AD server from the DNS server. The DNS1
and DNS2 settings are the same as the LAN Setup. Please make sure this is working properly.
To configure the DNS-346 to use Active Directory, click the Active Directory radio button and
configure the parameters as described below:
Username: Input the username of an account setup on the Active Directory
that requires access to the resources on the DNS-346.
Password: Input the password of the chosen Active Directory user account.
DNS1: Input a Domain Name Service (DNS) name for the DNS-346. If the device connecting to the DNS-346 is a browser or logon server this will
be the name that these services are advertised by. Input the Active Directory's preferred DNS Server IP address.
DNS2: Input the Active Directory's alternate DNS Server IP address.
Name: Input the Active Directory's name here.
Workgroup: Input the Workgroup of the Active Directory in this field.
Realm Name: Input the Realm Name of the Active Directory in this field.
AD Server Name: Input the name of the AD Server in this field. When the Windows user attempts to access the DNS-346 at login time, the DNS-346 will
connect to the 2003 AD Server and attempt to authenticate the given user with the given password.
