To end your <strong>Server</strong> <strong>Administrator</strong> session, click Log Out on the "Global<br />

Navigation Bar." The Log Out button is located in the upper-right corner of<br />

each <strong>Server</strong> <strong>Administrator</strong> home page.<br />

NOTE: When you launch <strong>Server</strong> <strong>Administrator</strong> using either Mozilla Firefox version<br />

3.0 and 3.5 or Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7.0 or 8.0, an intermediate warning<br />

page may appear displaying the problem with security certificate. To ensure system<br />

security, it is recommended that you generate a new X.509 certificate, reuse an<br />

existing X.509 certificate, or import a root certificate or certificate chain from a<br />

Certification Authority (CA). To avoid encountering such warning messages about<br />

the certificate, the certificate used must be from a trusted CA. For more information<br />

on X.509 Certificate Management, see X.509 Certificate Management.<br />

To ensure system security, it is recommended that you import a root<br />

certificate or certificate chain from a Certification Authority (CA). See the<br />

VMware documentation for details.<br />

NOTE: If the certificate authority on the managed system is valid and if the<br />

<strong>Server</strong> <strong>Administrator</strong> web server still reports an untrusted certificate error, you can<br />

still make the managed system’s CA as trusted by using the certutil.exe file. See<br />

your operating system documentation for details on accessing this .exe file. On<br />

supported Windows operating systems, you can also use the certificates snap in<br />

option to import certificates.<br />

Using the Active Directory Login<br />

You should select the Active Directory Login check box to log in using the<br />

<strong>Dell</strong> Extended Schema Solution in Active Directory.<br />

This solution enables you to provide access to <strong>Server</strong> <strong>Administrator</strong>; allowing<br />

you to add/control <strong>Server</strong> <strong>Administrator</strong> users and privileges to existing users<br />

in your Active Directory software. For more information, see "Using Microsoft<br />

Active Directory" in the <strong>Dell</strong> <strong>OpenManage</strong> Installation and Security <strong>User's</strong> <strong>Guide</strong>.<br />

Single Sign-On<br />

The Single Sign-On option in Windows operating systems enables all loggedin<br />

users to bypass the login page and access the <strong>Server</strong> <strong>Administrator</strong> Web<br />

application by clicking the <strong>Dell</strong> <strong>OpenManage</strong> <strong>Server</strong> <strong>Administrator</strong> icon<br />

on your desktop.<br />

NOTE: For more information on Single Sign-On, see the Knowledge Base article at<br />
