EduReg2 Active Directory Setup

ER2

Active Directory integration for EduReg2

  1. Locate the file \\Program Files (x86)\EduReg2\ER2 Web\web.config Edit and change web.config to set up windows authentication and authorization <authentication mode="Windows" /> <authorization> <deny users="?"/> </authorization>
  2. Make sure that Windows Authentication is enabled for IIS on the server
  3. Enable Windows Authentication and disable Anonymous access for corresponding site
  4. Set the value for Windows username in System Setup > Software Security > Edit User screen. Please note that only username part is used, so DO NOT put "MyDomain\userName" or "username@MyDomain". Just use "username" instead:
  5. Set up Internet Explorer to support straight-though authentication. IE will try to send current credentials only to a site that is considered to be Local Intranet. Otherwise the user will be presented with a standard Windows prompt to enter username and password.
    • a. From IE settings, go to Tools > Internet Options > Security > Local Intranet > Sites > Add and add the URL of the website. After go to Security > Custom Level and make sure that User Authentication > Logon is set to 'Automatic Logon only in Intranet Zone'. After save everything and close all screens and restart the website.
    • b. If the aforementioned 'a' method did not help, go to Internet Options > Security > Trusted Sites > Sites and add the corresponding site URL to the list of websites. After go to Trusted Sites > Custom Level and check that User Authentication > Logon is set to 'Automatic logon with current user name and password'. After save everything and close all screens and restart the website.
