# Windows NT Realm: Configuration

Configuration Options Related Tasks Related Topics

The Windows NT security realm uses account information defined for a Windows NT domain to authenticate users and groups. Use this page to define a name for the realm and the computer on which the Windows NT domain is running.

When using the Windows NT security realm, you must configure a Caching realm. When configuring the Caching realm, select the Windows NT security realm as the Basic realm. The Basic attribute defines the association between the Caching realm and the Windows NT security realm.

To use the Windows NT security realm, you need to use Compatibility security. The use of the Windows NT security realm is deprecated in this release of WebLogic Server.
