Turn Off Authenticate Domain User Profiles

You can turn off the Authenticate Domain User Profiles option to optimize the performance. If you disable this option, the domain user profiles selected for migration are not authenticated by their domain manager.

To turn off authenticate domain user profiles

1. Open the DMM Options Editor from the Start menu.

   DMM Options Editor opens.

2. Click File, Open or click the File Open toolbar button. Browse to the folder where CA DMM is installed and select the DDNAOptions.dox file.

   Note: If you have not run DesktopDNA.exe, click File, New to create the file.

3. Click Security Migration in the left pane of the DMM Options Editor.

   The Security Migration options appear in the right pane of the DMM Options Editor.

4. Locate the option: Authenticate Domain User Profiles.

   This option allows the domain server to authenticate the domain user profiles. The valid values are Never, Always, and Never in crossover cable migration. CA DMM defaults to Never in crossover cable migration.

5. Change the setting to Never.
6. Save the DDNAOptions.dox file.

   The domain server does not authenticate the domain user profiles.
