Actually... There seems to configure directory settings... It says there is "schema-free" directory intergration. Is it when I choose "Use Directory Defauly Schema"???

I don't want to make any schema change in AD...

In order to use that functionality you need the Advanced ILO license, directory integration is not available with the default ILO.

If you have that, schema free directory integration makes no changes to the AD.
You just need to know the LDAP query format for where the users are you're going to be allowing access.

Once you have that set up then you can use the AD to authenticate against.
I'd recommend maintaining a non-AD account as well.

Thanks. Following the doc, I set up as:

User DIrectory Default Schema
Directory Server Address
Directory Server LDAP Pport

also, modified "Administrator group" to add Security Group Distinguished Name as Domain admin group.

When I tested,

Unable to authenticate test user xxxxx [invalid credentials]

Why does this come up with "Invalid credentials"?

Thanks!

After I fighted some with testings, it didn't got anywhere. Instead, I tried in the actual login page, and it did work!!

Don't rely on the testing, but just try to test by actually logging in!
