The Single Sign-On option in Windows operating systems enables
all logged in users to bypass the login page and access the Server
Administrator Web application by clicking the
Server Administrator icon on your desktop.

NOTE: For more information
about Single Sign-On, see the Knowledge Base article at
support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q258063.
For local machine access, you must have an account on the machine
with the appropriate privileges (User, Power User, or Administrator).
Other users are authenticated against the Microsoft Active Directory.
To launch Server Administrator using Single Sign-On authentication
against Microsoft Active Directory, the following parameters must
also be passed:
authType=ntlm&application=[plugin name]
where
plugin name = omsa, ita, and so on.
For example,
https://localhost:1311/?authType=ntlm&application=omsa
To launch
Server Administrator using Single Sign-On authentication against the
local machine user accounts, the following parameters must also be
passed:
authType=ntlm&application=[plugin name]&locallogin=true
Where
plugin name = omsa, ita, and so on.
For example,
https://localhost:1311/?authType=ntlm&application=omsa&locallogin=true
Server
Administrator has also been extended to allow other products (such
as Dell OpenManage Essentials) to directly access Server Administrator
Web pages without going through the login page (if you are currently
logged in and have the appropriate privileges).
