Windows authentication configuration options can be set/modified by clicking on Set Permissions. The PC-Duo Host Security Settings window appears.
One of the strongest features of PC-Duo is the availability of fine-grained permissions. PC-Duo Master users or groups can be added or deleted from three different sets of permissions:
u"Service Security tab", defines permissions for services on this Host for the user or group selected.
u"Admin Security Tab", defines permissions for access to the PC-Duo Host Control Panel window.
u"Settings Security tab", defines permissions for modifying configuration settings for the PC-Duo Host Control Panel window.
An access control policy, comprised of a specific set of permissions, can be assigned to one or more PC-Duo Master users or groups in the network. A common configuration approach is to create role-based access control policies and assign them to specific groups of users in the network (e.g. Senior Administrators may be granted more permissions than Junior Administrators).
NOTE: If Windows authentication is selected, all Gateway-managed connections require that a PC-Duo Gateway domain user account with full access and administrative rights be configured on the Host computer.
NOTE: As long as the PC-Duo Gateway is on the known list of PC-Duo Gateways on the Host’s Gateways tab, the Host will automatically add that Gateway’s user account to its security settings list with full access rights.
