Netwrix Auditor API Authentication in Kerberos-only Environment

Question

Can Netwrix Auditor authentication be set up in Kerberos-only environment?

Answer

While NTLM authentication is recommended for API integration, Kerberos protocol can be used instead with following limitations to be considered:

  • Windows Server Auditing requires full computer names to be used instead of aliases.
  • Netwrix Auditor clients require a Netwrix Auditor server hostname to be specified instead of the server IP address.
