12.1 Overview of User Authentication and Account Track 12 Authentication Method External server authentication MFP authentication + External server authentication Description The method to manage users of this machine by synchronizing it with Active Directory or LDAP server. When Active Directory or LDAP server is used for user management in your environment, you can use user information managed using the server. This machine supports the following server types. • Active Directory: For details, refer to page 12-12. • NTLM: For details, refer to page 12-18. • LDAP: For details, refer to page 12-24. • NDS (NDS over IPX): For details, refer to page 12-29. • NDS (NDS over TCP/IP): For details, refer to page 12-34. The method using a combination of the authentication function of this machine and authentication by an external server. Even if some sort of problem occurs on the external authentication server, you can use this machine using its authentication function. Account Track Employing the Account Track function enables you to manage multiple users by account. Account authentication information is managed internally by this machine. A password can be set by account to restrict users from using this machine. Also, this function allows you to restrict available functions or manage the use status of this machine by account. For details on how to configure account track settings, refer to page 12-9. Combining user authentication and account track You can use a combination of user authentication and account track for management of each user for each department. To combine user authentication and account track, specify whether to synchronize account information with users according to your environment. Relationship between users and accounts When the user and account is in one-to-one relation When a user joins multiple accounts Description By synchronizing account information with a user, you can associate the user with an account on a one-to-one basis. For example, you can allow a company staff member belonging to a certain department to use color printing and another member belonging to another department to use black and white printing only. Also, you can count the number of printed sheets by department to encourage each department to develop awareness of costs. If you specify the department of a user when registering him/her, you can log in as the account only by logging in as the user. To manage the use status not only by actual department but also by project, do not synchronize the user with an account. For example, for a project across multiple departments, you can analyze the use status of this machine by project as well as by company staff member or department. To log in to this machine, enter the user name, then specify the account. bizhub C754/C654 12-3

Account Track
Employing the Account Track function enables you to manage multiple users by account. Account authenti-
cation information is managed internally by this machine.
A password can be set by account to restrict users from using this machine. Also, this function allows you to
restrict available functions or manage the use status of this machine by account.
For details on how to configure account track settings, refer to page 12-9.
Combining user authentication and account track
You can use a combination of user authentication and account track for management of each user for each
department. To combine user authentication and account track, specify whether to synchronize account in-
formation with users according to your environment.
External server authentica-
tion
The method to manage users of this machine by synchronizing it with Ac-
tive Directory or LDAP server.
When Active Directory or LDAP server is used for user management in your
environment, you can use user information managed using the server.
This machine supports the following server types.
Active Directory: For details, refer to page 12-12.
NTLM: For details, refer to page 12-18.
LDAP: For details, refer to page 12-24.
NDS (NDS over IPX): For details, refer to page 12-29.

Relationship between us-
ers and accounts
Description
When the user and account
is in one-to-one relation
By synchronizing account information with a user, you can associate the
user with an account on a one-to-one basis.
For example, you can allow a company staff member belonging to a certain
department to use color printing and another member belonging to another
department to use black and white printing only. Also, you can count the
number of printed sheets by department to encourage each department to
develop awareness of costs.
If you specify the department of a user when registering him/her, you can
log in as the account only by logging in as the user.
When a user joins multiple
accounts
To manage the use status not only by actual department but also by
project, do not synchronize the user with an account.
For example, for a project across multiple departments, you can analyze
the use status of this machine by project as well as by company staff mem-
ber or department.
To log in to this machine, enter the user name, then specify the account.
