Using Active Directory to Log In To the DRAC 4

You can use Active Directory to log in to the DRAC 4 through the Web-based interface, with
remote racadm, or through the serial or telnet console.
The login syntax is consistent for all three methods:
< username@domain > or < domain>\<username > or < domain>/<username > (where
username is an ASCII string of 1–256 bytes). No white space and no special characters (such
as \, /, or @) are allowed in either the user name or the domain name.
NOTE:

Using the DRAC 4 With Microsoft
You cannot specify NetBIOS domain names, such as Americas, since those names cannot be resolved.
