Summary

Learn how to configure DSM to use NTLM authentication. This is useful if you just temporarily used SQL authentication to get the DSM installed.

Details

To change authentication from SQL to NTLM:

Go to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\Deep Security Manager\webclient\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\ and back up the dsm.properties file.
Open the dsm.properties file and update the values of the following:
database.SqlServer.user=<username>
database.SqlServer.password=<password>
database.SqlServer.domain=<domain name>

Update the following only if you will not use the same SQL database:

database.type=SqlServer
database.SqlServer.instance=<instance name>
database.name=<database_name>
database.SqlServer.server=<hostname>
database.SqlServer.namedPipe=false
mode.demo=false
If the SQL server is set to allow only NTLMv2, add the following line:
database.SqlServer.useNTLMv2=true
Save and close the dsm.properties file.
Restart the DSM.
