Application Configuration

Defining an Agent

In order to use PINsafe authentication in Windows login, you first need to define an Agent for the login server. You can do this from the PINsafe administration console, under Server => Agents

If you will be using PINsafe authentication only on a single server (e.g. a Terminal Server), then you can define a single IP address for the Agent:

Single Agent

If, however, you need to define a range of addresses to use PINsafe Credential Provider, you can specify the address using CIDR notation as follows:

Network Agent

Defining the Third-Party Authentication class

NOTE: you only need this step if you are intending to allow local (offline) authentication. This facility requires that you have PINsafe 3.6 or later.

If you will be using local authentication, then you need to define a new entry under Server => Third Party Authentication. Apart from the Group, which can be any defined group, the entry should be exactly as follows:

WindowsGINA

(NOTE: the name "WindowsGINA" is a relic from the previous version of the login: Windows Vista and later versions do not use GINA for login).
