To create and NT Authenticated User, set the Elements option list on the Admin elements form to NT Authenticated User and click Create.
The NT Authenticated User Creation form will be displayed.
In the Name field enter a valid user name of an existing Windows user. You must now add project users for NT authentication. If the Authenticated Users list is not populated with at least one project user, when clicking Apply there will be no further response and an error message is displayed.
You can add project users to NT authenticated users by using the Authenticated User Membership scrolling lists. All the users in the project are shown in the Project Users list. The Authenticated Users list show the users selected for NT authentication from the Project Users list. You add project users to NT authenticated users by selecting the user in the Project Users list and clicking the right arrow button. The user is then added to the Authenticated Users list. To remove NT authentication from a user, select the user in the Authenticated Users list and click the left arrow button.
The NT authenticated user’s default user name can be set by selecting an option from the Default User drop-down list.
Clicking Apply authenticates the users selected for NT authentication against the entered Windows user name. The Admin elements form now shows the name of the newly created NT authenticated user added to the names of the existing NT authenticated users.
