Active Directory Integration

Before you can set up Active Directory or Windows Domain authentication you need to register NTAdmin.dll to enable ColdFusion to talk to Active Directory.

Note

This could also be done using Active Directory's LDAP interface.

Instructions

Basic steps for Active Directory integration are:

  1. register NTAdmin.dll for use as a com object (file can be found under farcry_core/admin/install/dmSec_files). I find it easiest to copy this file to your winnt/system32 directory and then from the command prompt run this:
Code Block
regsvr32 c:\winnt\system32\ntadmin.dll
  1. create a new FarCry user directory (<yourApp> / config / _dmSecUserDirectories.cfm) with typename of "ADSI" and the domain of your active directory eg

...

That's it. Your users should be able to log in as normal.

Note

Note you can't view/modify AD users from FarCry.
