Directory Services

The Directory Services settings allow you to control the integration of ViaWorks with Active Directory.

Options include:

Enable separate domain input instead of combined domain and username
- By default, ViaWorks uses two fields for authentications: username and password. Usernames entered into ViaWorks can be in the form of domain\username or username@domain.com. Check this setting if you’d prefer to use 3 fields: username, password and a separate domain field.
Enable user selectable domain names
- When the separate domain field is enabled, this setting changes the field to a drop down box where users can select the domain from a list
Truncate Domain Name

Specifies whether the suffix of the domain is truncated (e.g., DOMAIN.COMPANY.COM is converted to DOMAIN).

Domain Discovery Mode
- Specifies whether the domain discovery mode is Automatic or Manual.
  - When the mode is manual, domains may be added to and removed from the list by using the Add and Remove buttons respectively.
  - When the mode is automatic, provide credentials for an account in the domain and a list of available domains will be populated automatically.
