Force nFront Password Filter Client to a specific Domain Controller

Problem

The nFront Password Filter Client generally uses the domain controller specified as the %logonserver% for retrieving password policies. However, the communication is not always guaranteed to use that specific domain controller.

Solution

To force the nFront Password Filter Client to use a specific domain controller, add the following registry value:

HKLM\Software\ Altus\PassfiltProClient\targetDC, REG_SZ, <DC Name without leading \\>
