SkySync and Windows Integrated Authentication

For SkySync to properly function with jobs involving Integrated Authentication, the SkySync Service must be configured to log on as the domain account with the credentials for Integrated Authentication.

To configure the SkySync service to log on as a domain account, follow these steps:

1. Open the Windows services list, and locate the SkySync Service.

To access the Services list, use the Windows + R key command to open Run, and enter the command: services.msc
