Mac Clients Must Log On to Trusted Domains - No Pass-through (127103)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.5
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.51
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q127103 SYMPTOMS
From a Macintosh client, if you log into a Windows NT master domain and
then access a resource in a Windows NT domain that trusts the master
domain, you must re-enter your user ID and password.
This occurs even when Services for Macintosh is configured to use the
Microsoft User Authentication Module.
CAUSE
Windows NT clients are able to take advantage of Windows NT pass-through
validation, where when you have an account on the master domain, you can
access any trusting domain's resources without having to re-enter your name
and password. However, the design of the Macintosh redirector and the
AppleTalk protocol does not allow for participation in pass-through
validation. Thus, you must re-enter your user ID and password.
STATUS
This is a limitation of the Macintosh network client
The Macintosh computer and AppleTalk protocol are manufactured by Apple
Computers, Inc., a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty,
implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
