About licenses

Safeguard Authentication Services must be licensed in order for Active Directory users to authenticate on Unix and macOS hosts.

Considerations:

  • New licenses have to be added prior to upgrade.

  • You can install and configure Safeguard Authentication Services on Windows and use the included management tools to Unix-enable users and groups in Active Directory without installing a license. However, you must have a valid Safeguard Authentication Services license installed for full functionality.

  • In order to use Starling Two-Factor Authentication, you must have a valid license for Authentication Services with One Identity Hybrid Subscription included.

To obtain a license, use the Licensing Assistance page on the One Identity support page or contact your account representative.

For more information on installing Authentication Services licenses, see Adding licenses using the Control Center.

Prerequisite Windows software

If the following prerequisite is missing, the Safeguard Authentication Services installer suspends the installation process to allow you to download the required component. It then continues the install:

  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5

You can install Safeguard Authentication Services on 64-bit editions of the following configurations:

  • Windows Server 2008 R2
  • Windows Server 2012
  • Windows Server 2012 R2
  • Windows Server 2016
  • Windows Server 2019

NOTE: Due to tightened security, when running Safeguard Authentication Services Control Center on Windows 2008 R2 (or later) operating system, functioning as a domain controller, the process must be elevated or you must add authenticated users to the Distributed COM Users group on the computer. As a best practice, One Identity does not recommend that you install or run the Safeguard Authentication Services Windows components on Active Directory domain controllers. The recommended configuration is to install the Safeguard Authentication Services Windows components on an administrative workstation.
