Initialize the Mart with a Windows-authenticated User

In the previous releases, only a server user was allowed to initialize a Mart. Now a Windows-authenticated user can also initialize a Mart. Further, a Windows-authenticated user can log in to a Mart as a Windows user.

To initialize a Mart with a Windows-authenticated user, follow these steps:

1. Provide the Active Directory details with user credentials in the Active Directory Details section in the CA ERwin Mart Configuration dialog.
2. Open CA ERwin Mart Administrator, enter the user name in the <domain name>/<user name> format. For more information about how to initialize a Mart, see the Workgroup Edition Implementation and Administration Guide.

To log in as a Windows-authenticated user, follow these steps:

This procedure describes how to enable a Windows-authenticated user log in to a Mart that is already initialized. Use this procedure if the Mart is initialized with either a server user or a Windows-authenticated user.

1. Ensure that you have provided the Active Directory details with user credentials in the Active Directory Details section in the CA ERwin Mart Configuration dialog.
2. Log in to the Mart as an administrator and add the required user as a Windows user in the Mart. Ensure that the user belongs to the Active Directory that was provided at the time of configuring the Mart.

   Now the Windows-authenticated user can log in to CA ERwin Mart Administrator by providing the user name in the <domain name>/<user name> format.

Note: A local Windows user who does not belong to a domain or who is not part of an Active Directory cannot log in to the Mart as a Windows user.
