Reverting to Windows Integrated Authentication

FlexNet Manager Suite 2021 R1 (On-Premises)
Should you need to do so, it is possible to revert from Google OAuth back to Windows Integrated Authentication.
Note: When reverting to Windows Integrated Authentication, any operators that have been created for use with Google OAuth 2.0 will no longer work. New accounts need to be created using Windows Integrated Authentication.

To reinstate Windows Integrated Authentication:

  1. On your application server (or in a multi-server installation, your web application server), navigate to the Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) configuration.
  2. There are several sites related to FlexNet Manager Suite, enabling various features. Repeat the following configuration for each of these sites:
    Feature IIS Site Name

    FlexNet Manager Suite

    		 Suite

    Simulations

    		 ECMBusinessPortal

    FlexNet Manager for SAP Applications

    		 SAPOptimization
  3. For each site in turn, ensure that each of the following settings is correctly configured:
    • Windows Authentication is enabled
    • Forms Authentication is disabled
    • Anonymous Authentication is disabled.
  4. Restart IIS to enable the new settings to take effect.
You can now create new operator accounts based on user accounts imported from Active Directory. For more information, see the online help.
