Active Directory Login for Nodes Case #1334905

Setup Active Directory servers to use an Active Directory user and password for logging into NCM devices for configuration management and config backups. 

Case #1334905

  • I agree, every time when you login password change you need to update it in NCM. Otherwise your scheduled jobs fail and your account gets locked out in active directory.

    Would be nice to tell NCM please use my current Windows Active Directory credentials that I just logged in to Solarwinds on the devices we mange.

  • Explanation for this request:

    We have ceritan devices that have the ability to use Active Directory accounts to login to manage those devices on the CLI.  I have requested that solarwinds make an option to set a feature up for this on solarwinds NCM.  So the NCM would have to connect to the Acitve Directory servers and use the current password for the login.  This would solve having to change the password for the AD account every time it changes.  Basically an automatic update on the password.
