Connect to the client

The following conditions must be met to properly connect:

•
Communications are successful, meaning the coordinator service is running and has a valid SCP listening port (no firewall implications). If this condition fails, the client displays an error dialog stating the appropriate issue.
•
The current authenticated user running the client has the proper credentials for accessing the coordinator service. If this condition fails, the client displays the Coordinator Credentials Required dialog where you can enter the proper login credentials to access the coordinator.
•
The current authenticated user is a member of either the ChangeAuditor Administrators or ChangeAuditor Operators AD group. If this condition fails, the Change Auditor logon screen displays an error and allows you to enter the appropriate credentials.
•
When using a direct database connection, the current authenticated user running the client has the proper SQL credentials for accessing the SQL database. If this condition fails, the client displays the Database Credentials Required dialog where you can enter the proper logon credentials to access the SQL database.
•
To access an archive database, the account that you use to log into the client must not have the 'Deny logon over the network' right set.
To open the client
1
Select Start | All Programs | Quest | Change Auditor | Change Auditor Client.
The Connection screen opens where you can connect to the ‘default connection’ profile or define or specify a different connection profile.
A connection profile defines the connection method used to connect to a coordinator in trusted or untrusted forests, or to the database directly without connecting with the coordinator. See Manage Connection Profiles in the Change Auditor User Guide for more information about defining connection profiles.
2
Initially, select Connect to use the default connection profile.
After you have defined alternate connection profiles, select the appropriate profile from the drop-down list and click Connect.
3
If you do not have the proper credentials required for access, the credentials dialog opens allowing you to enter the required credentials.
Depending on how your system has been configured:
•
Enter a user account and password or a smart card certificate and personal identification number.
•
Select Disconnect client after 30 minutes of inactivity to disconnect from the coordinator after 30 minutes of inactivity.
4
You are now ready to deploy agents. See Deploy Change Auditor Agents for details.

Open the web client

The web client enables you to perform administrative tasks, search for configuration changes and view Change Auditor data using a web browser rather than the Change Auditor client.

* 
NOTE: The web client’s appearance is different based on whether you have started it using a standard browser or a mobile browser. The procedures in this guide illustrate the standard browser version of the web client.
* 
NOTE: Upgrading the web client
After you have upgraded the web client, you may need to force your browser to reload the Change Auditor web pages from the web server (CTRL-F5 for IE, Chrome ,or Firefox) to ensure you are seeing the most up-to-date changes made to style components within the web client (for example, icons, text or images). See the documentation for your browser for further details.
To open the web client:
1
Open your web browser and enter the URL of the web application server.
http://<Web Server Host Name>/ChangeAuditor
* 
NOTE: If you specified a different default port (other than 80) on the Internet Information Services screen of the setup wizard, you must also enter the default port specified:

http://<Web Server Host Name>:<Port>/ChangeAuditor

2
When the web client is opened, log on by entering the user name (<Domain>\<UserName>) and password of an authorized Active Directory account.
* 
NOTE: Selecting the Remember Me check box retains your <Domain>\<UserName> on subsequent sessions.
3
Click Log In.

Access product information

The first time the client is opened, the Start page provides access to news and updates, support, and knowledge base content, online documentation, links to the latest releases, and essential contact links.

If you do not want to see this page each time that you open the client, then clear the Display this page each time I log in option. One this option has been cleared, the next time you log in you will be directed automatically to the Overview page. However, Quest suggest you keep the Start page active as it contains the most up-to-date access to the supporting information you may require.
