Windows authentication Single Sign On (SSO)

It would be extremely helpful to have a passthru Windows SSO option for Solarwinds, especially when you factor in an environment with multiple NOC views on dedicated keyboardless/mouseless systems with large displays in public areas where no one has the ability to log in.

Orion has support for SAML SSO and Windows authentication through MSAPI or LDAP. I'm curious if you can be more specific about what you'd like to see. I'm not familiar with MSAPI and am curious if it handles Negotiate, Kerberos, and/or CBA.

Thanks for the response. Right now, we are using the DirectLink account to provide "automatic/SSO" access to SolarWinds on our dedicated NOC system. I thought that it would be nice to have other accounts that are linked to different views that can be automatically logged in. For example, I was hoping that we could have a "BigBoard" account that has our most important apps with custom maps for our Helpdesk folks on their overhead monitor/VDI system. I envisioned that we would have a link to SolarWinds for that account that could get automatically logged in, since it is a keyboardless/mouseless system. Currently, the only way that we can simulate this is to point to anything in SolarWinds and the DirectLink account has dedicated views. This only allows us to have a single view, but we wanted to implement others. Not sure if this makes sense or not. Thanks again!
