Qualify accounts by domain

Performing an initial synchronization creates user accounts based on Windows credentials without specifying a domain for the imported users.

If you enable domain qualification and want to subsequently create users manually, ensure that you include the correct domain in the User ID field. Failing to do so adds the user with the default domain specified under the Domain qualification setting in Web System Manager.

To set the domain qualification option, do the following:

  1. In System Configuration, select Global Configuration Settings > Network Environment > Domain Qualification, SMTP Mail and SNMP Configuration.
  2. Select or clear the Qualify all user IDs with NT domain information option as necessary, depending on whether or not you want to use domain-qualified user IDs.
  3. If selecting to qualify users, enter a default domain name for unqualified users IDs attempting to print, and click Apply.
Any user accounts that were automatically created before Domain qualification was enabled are updated to show the domain information following the next active directory sync (ADS).
