Rock allows individuals to log in using several different authentication services. The only one active after an install, however, is the Rock database provider. This provider gives individuals their own Rock username and password. For many organizations this will be the default service they’ll use for authenticating an individual, as no additional configuration is required to enable it. Each of the additional services is discussed in more detail below. Active Directory Many organizations already have a Microsoft Active Directory (AD) infrastructure in place for their employees to log into the network, email and other resources. Rock can use this as an additional authentication source once configured. You can set up Rock to use your Active Directory under Admin Tools > Settings > Authentication Services > Active Directory Activate - Be sure to activate the security service by selecting Yes.Server - Provide the server name of one of your Active Directory Domain Controllers.Domain - Configure the AD Domain on the server to authenticate to. Once the service is configured, you're ready to create logins in Rock. Active Directory logins can't use the normal Rock registration process. Instead, you must add the login manually to the user on the Person Profile page. Last Step After activating the service in Admin Tools > Settings > Authentication Services, open the login pages you wish to enable the authentication on (/page/207 for External Login and /page/3 for Internal Login), edit the Login Block Property, and turn on Remote Authorization Types for the services that you activated. External Authentication Services After activating the service in Admin Tools > Settings > Authentication Services, open the login pages you wish to enable the authentication on (/page/207 for External Login and /page/3 for Internal Login), edit the Login Block Property, and turn on Remote Authorization Types for the services that you activated.
