NTProxy Security Provider

NTProxy — sometimes known as native Windows login — is an SAP Mobile Server provider that integrates with existing Windows login security mechanisms.

If added to a particular security configuration, users or administrators can authenticate with their native Windows user name and password, which gives them access to roles that are based on their existing Windows memberships.

For example, a local user is authenticated against the local server. The roles looked up include the global roles, if any, and the local roles defined on the server. Likewise, a domain user is authenticated against the domain controller. The roles granted include global roles, if any, and the roles local to the domain controller that are granted to the user. In a cluster environment, the list of roles granted to the user does not differ based on the SAP Mobile Server node that processes the authentication.

The NTProxy provider fulfills authentication services only with classes in csi-nativeos.jar; role-based access control and attribution are not directly supported. Groups are also not supported in NTProxy. Instead, group memberships are transformed into a role of the same name and can be mapped in SAP Control Center.
