Active directory authentication

  • default implementation uses two AD-security groups to map "operator" and "supervisor" application roles. This is defined in station.ini (supervisor_sid=, operator_sid=)
  • when starting OGS, the currently logged on user is checked having one of the two roles and gets rights assigned accordingly
  • rights:
    • supervisor has all rights
    • operator has limited rights as defined in the user_rights global LUA table (as with standard authentication)
  • NOTE: Ensure setting a folder SID for the project folder to prevent changing and project file (admin only write allowed)

User interface

  • uses the standard windows credentials dialog
  • for domain users, UPN format is used (email@domain)
