Hello,

What does this setting do? I am unable to find it in the documentation.

Sorry, I could´t resist :) : Smartass mode on: You know there is a search function in the options menu? Just type the option you are searching, hit the binocular and you see where this option is...

Hello Andreas,

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding this,

This option relates to your configuration of the "Application Security" under "File" -> "Option" -> "Security"

From my understanding, if this option is enabled RDM will perform the "LogonUser" by using your Domain in your username, by default, without this option enabled RDM will use "Environment.MachineName" which is the "NetBIOS name of this local computer".

For example, if the option is enabled and your credentials are the following:
User : user1\domain1
Password : password1
Machine : testmachine1

Then the resulting credentials for the login would be the following:
User : user1
Domain : domain1
Password : password1

In this example if the option was disabled the credentials would be the following:
User : user1
Domain : testmachine1
Password : password1

Hopefully this helps, let me know if you have further questions regarding this,

Best regards,

Hello,

I would understand this setting as "only authenticate against the domain". But there is no context for which login this would apply. For the Database login or Application Security or anything else?

Your Developers should really document such settings and not just implement them without the needed context...

Hello Andreas,

Thank you for your reply,

From my understanding, this would be for the Application Security.

I will discuss this with our Documentation team to see if this option could be documented.

Let me know if you have further questions regarding this,

Best regards,
