Using Active Directory to Log In To the DRAC 4
You can use Active Directory to log in to the DRAC 4 through the Web-based interface, with
remote racadm, or through the serial or telnet console.
The login syntax is consistent for all three methods:
<
username@domain
> or <
domain>\<username
> or <
domain>/<username
> (where
username
is an ASCII string of 1–256 bytes). No white space and no special characters (such
as \, /, or @) are allowed in either the user name or the domain name.
NOTE: You cannot specify NetBIOS domain names, such as Americas, since those names cannot be resolved.
