Prefer Authentication against cached credentials

Authenticate using the users cached credentials first regardless of the Active Directory connectivity state.

This can be used to reduce network traffic on slow networks, but may have undesired side effects if authenticated via cache while online.

This group policy modifies the adclient.prefer.cache.validation setting in the Centrify DirectControl configuration file.

Supported on:

Registry HiveHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Registry PathSoftware\Policies\Centrify\CentrifyDC\Settings
Value Nameadclient.prefer.cache.validation
Value TypeREG_SZ
Enabled Valuetrue
Disabled Valuefalse

Specify a list of rescue users (enter the comma-separated user or group names, e.g. [email protected], [email protected], or use * to include all AD users):

Registry HiveHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Registry PathSoftware\Policies\Centrify\CentrifyDC\Settings
Value Nameadclient.prefer.cache.validation
Value TypeREG_DWORD
Default Value

centrifydc_settings.admx
