Windows Authentication is based on Kerberos standard authentication but with some extensions.
Your ActiveDirectory authentication is used to log in to a variety of different places:
- UMIACS-supported computers
- UMIACS-supported email
- UMIACS-supported web services
- UMIACS VPN
Your account might be shown in either of these two alternate ways depending on the application you are using:
- UMIACS\username
- username@ad.umiacs.umd.edu
- If you had an account prior to March 24th 2018 and your mail was handled by our Exchange service on that day, this may instead show as username@pc.umiacs.umd.edu.
