AD based Authentication for Jenkins from Local Accounts

[krishna chaitanya kurnala]

Hello Guys

Can one of you guide me through the process involved, we are currently using Jenkins Local Usernames/Password to Authenticate and we need to have people login with their AD Accounts instead now.

I installed AD plugin, gave the details of our AD of our company, it ran fine and I am able to login with my AD Account, however, I dont see the "Manage Jenkins" anymore, I kind of, locked myself out, and cant do anything, I disabled security in root config.xml to get back to Manage Jenkins again and revert to old Local Auth Mechanism.

Can one of you please guide me through the Migration Process.

Thanks,

Krishna Chaitanya

Did you add yourself with Administrator privileges in the Users/Groups panel before activating security?
