  1. In the Server Connection Settings section, type the following information into the corresponding fields:
    • Server: Type the Server name or IP address of your domain controller.
    • Login: Type the login credentials for your domain controller in the format DOMAIN\username.

      Capitalize the domain and username

      Be sure to capitalize the domain and username. Linux systems require this formatting in order to properly authenticate queries to an Active Directory server.

    • Password: Type the password used to log onto your domain controller.

    If you want to use LDAP, select the check box next to Use LDAP instead of Active Directory and enter the information for your server.
