Configuring User Authentication Configuring User Authentication There are five types of user authentication methods: User Code authentication, Basic authentication, Windows authentication, LDAP authentication, and Integration Server authentication. To use user authentication, select an authentication method on the control panel, and then make the required settings for the authentication. The settings depend on the authentication method. Specify administrator authentication, and then specify user authentication. • If user authentication is not possible because of a problem with the hard disk or network, you can use the machine by accessing it using administrator authentication and disabling user authentication. Do this if, for instance, you need to use the machine urgently. • You cannot use more than one authentication method at the same time.
