Netlogon can be used to verify user credentials against a Windows domain controller. myPBX can use this service to allow users to login with their Windows password.

Applies to

  • innovaphone devices with a PBX from version 12r1.

How it works

The netlogon service passes NTLM hashes to a windows domain controller for verification. myPBX uses the netlogon service for user authentication using windows passwords.

Connection to the domain controller

The netlogon service needs to connect to the DC. It authenticates using a computer account in the domain.

  1. DNS is used to retrieve the IP address of the DC (SRV record for _ldap._tcp.example.com).
  2. The endpoint mapper on the EC is asked for the actual port of the netlogon server on the DC.
  3. A connetion is established to the netlogon server. For authentication the configured computer name and computer password is used.
