AD Pro Toolkit Authentication

Authentication Overview

The AD Pro Toolkit works on domain-joined and non-domain joined computers.

Note: You only need to authenticate to one domain controller in your domain.

By default, the AD Pro Toolkit will use pass-through authentication. If your computer is domain joined and you log in with a domain account the toolkit will use those credentials to automatically connect to your domain.

You can check the connection status by clicking on Settings.

How to Change Authentication Settings

1. Click on “Settings”.
2. Click the “Pencil” to edit the connection.
3. Click the box “Specify Username” and enter your username and password. If it is a domain-joined computer it should auto-detect your domain and domain controller. If the domain and domain controller are not detected you will need to provide those details. The domain controller needs to be the FQDN.
4. Click “OK” to save the connection.

The domain settings screen should update with the username and display connected.
