Sorry, AD authentication is not possible yet with PRTG 8. It is on the wishlist, but unfortunately, we cannot give an ETA.

If I could put my hand up for remote auth, we would prefer RADIUS authentication over Active Directory. Much preferred.

A range of external authentication methods would be a good idea.

eg. AD, LDAP, RADIUS, TACACS+

This would enable us to use whichever centralised authentication system we have in use. Where I work, we use AD with RSA and Cisco ACS. Each system is used for different parts of the authentication, authorisation and accounting process, so routing all logins etc via ACS via TACACS+ would be our preferred method.

Active Directory integration (and any other centralized authentication mechanism) is a must-have.

We plan to have it with PRTG 9 (Q4 2011), but please bear in mind that I can't guarantee this. Please bear with us.

Just another ++ on this request. Federated access is a must in enterprises and moving from a different solution to paessler, we are sorely missing this feature.

We really need RADIUS or TACACS+ authentication.
