Integrate the Barracuda CloudGen Firewall with your NT LAN Manager (NTLM) authentication server to authenticate NTLM domain users via their Microsoft Windows credentials. To enable transparent authentication against your NTLM server, join the firewall to the NTLM domain as an authorized host.

Step 1. Configure NTLM Authentication

  1. Go to USERS > External Authentication.

    Always enter the Domain Realm in uppercase letters. E.g., MYDOMAIN.COM

  4. Enter the Netbios Domain Name.

  5. (Optional) Enter the MS Active Directory Workgroup Name.

  6. In the Domain Controller field, enter the hostname or IP address of the domain controller.

    The hostname must be DNS resolvable.

  7. (Optional) Enter the hostname of the domain's Windows Internet Name Service server in the WINS Servers field.
