Local authentication

Local authentication allows users to sign in with a username and password managed directly by fDeploy Server.

How it works

Local user accounts are stored in the fDeploy Server database. Passwords are securely hashed using ASP.NET Core Identity with the following requirements:

  • Minimum 8 characters
  • At least one uppercase letter
  • At least one lowercase letter
  • At least one digit
  • At least one special character

Signing in

  1. Navigate to fDeploy Server in your browser
  2. Select Sign in with a local account
  3. Enter your username and password
  4. Click Sign in

Account lockout

After multiple failed login attempts, a local account will be automatically locked out as a security measure. An administrator can unlock the account from the user management area.

Changing your password

Any authenticated user can change their own password by clicking on their username in the top-right corner of the navigation bar and selecting Change password. You will need to provide your current password along with the new password.

Creating local accounts

Local user accounts can be created by administrators through the user management area. See User management for details.
