<h2>ABOUT AUTHENTICATION SOURCES</h2>
|
|
<br />
|
|
<h3>KnowledgeTree Default - Database Authentication</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
By default, KnowledgeTree's inbuilt authentication method stores information about users and groups in the KnowledgeTree database, and retrieves this information to control access to the KnowledgeTree document management system (DMS).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<br />
|
|
<h3>External Authentication Sources</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you want to maintain your own predefined user and group information to control access to KnowledgeTree, you can add users from a preconfigured external authentication source.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<br />
|
|
<p>
|
|
When using external authentication sources, you need to add the authentication source, then, when adding your users to KnowledgeTree, select your preferred authentication source. When a user from your preferred authentication source first logs in to KnowledgeTree, their user credentials are automatically imported into KnowledgeTree.
