IBM Director Login window

This topic describes the IBM Director Login window in IBM Director.

Introduction

When you log in to the IBM Director Server through the IBM Director Console, the user ID and password are validated against the operating system's security subsystem where the IBM Director Server component is installed, not on the workstation where IBM Director Console is running. The user ID and password must be valid on the operating system where the IBM Director Server is running, and the user must be authorized as an IBM Director administrator.

Fields

IBM Director Server
The name of the management server you want to log in to.
User ID
The user ID of the person opening the console. This user must be authorized as an IBM Director administrator.

For IBM Director Console running on Windows, type the User ID in the format: ComputerName\UserID. ComputerName is either the local computer name or the domain, depending on whether the IBM Director service account has domain or local privileges

Password
The password associated with the user ID.
Use SSL
When this check box is selected, IBM Director uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) to encrypt data communications between IBM Director Console and IBM Director Server.
註: SSL console connections must be enabled. This is the default option.
