PERATIONS
The M86 Authenticator ensures the end user is authenti-
cated on his/her workstation, via an executable file that
launches during the login process. To use this option, the
M86 Authenticator client (authenticat.exe) should be placed
in a network share accessible by the domain controller or a
Novell eDirectory server such as NetWare eDirectory server
6.5.
NOTE: The M86 Authenticator client (authenticat.exe) can be
downloaded from the Enable/Disable Authentication window.
(See the Enable authentication, specify criteria sub-section in
Chapter 2: Network Setup.)
On a Macintosh, the M86 Authenticator client (Authenti-
cator) should be installed on the client machine so that it will
automatically launch when the end user logs in.
NOTES: Most Apple shops use Apple Remote Desktop to deploy
files in bulk, rather than posting each individual download on a file
server.
The M86 Authenticator Deployment Kit is designed for the Macin-
tosh and contains the Authenticator executable, along with some
support files. When installing the M86 Authenticator Deployment
Kit on a Macintosh, the informational Authenticator Basics.pdf
document launches. Please review this document before
installing the Authenticator.
