Setting up Starling users

A new Group Policy Object has been added to Safeguard Authentication Services to manage the group file for Starling, which is located in /etc/opt/quest/vas/users.starling.

Sample users.starling file

# This assumes that the host has been joined to the example.com domain.

# To validate the users.starling file, run:

# vastool info acl

#

# This file controls which user's have Starling appled to them during login based

# on group membership.

# For entries:

# If DOMAIN is omitted ( simple name given )it is assumed to be the joined domain.

# Entries are case insensitive.

# DOMAIN can be either long(fqdn) or short(netbios).

# Apply Starling to members of the sales and engineering groups.

# The entry DOMAIN\SamAccountName format is preferred.

EXAMPLE\sales

engineering

This file can be manually created or set using the GPO.

To enable Starling for users using the GPO

  1. Open your Group Policy management system.
  2. Select the applicable group policy.
  3. Navigate to Computer configuration | Unix Settings | Starling.
  4. Double-click users.starling.
  5. Add the groups that contain the users to be enabled to use Starling 2FA.

It may take up to 90 minutes to apply this configuration change. Use vgptool apply to apply the changes quicker.
