OK, well here's what I'm finding. You were, at least before, able to use AD AND Jenkins own user database. Here are instructions I found for using both:
Go to Manage Jenkins > Configure Global Security. Set Security Realm. Under the Security Realm section, select Active Directory as the authentication method. Configure Active Directory Settings. - *Enable "Allow login with Jenkins' own user database":* Crucially, to allow local Jenkins users to also authenticate, you need to enable the option "Allow login with Jenkins' own user database" within the Active Directory security realm configuration. This option instructs Jenkins to first attempt authentication against Active Directory, and if that fails, to then try authenticating against its internal user database. Configure Authorization Strategy (Optional but Recommended). That said, the option "Allow login with Jenkins' own user database" is no longer available in the latest build of Jenkins. Was this intentionally removed? Is there a workaround so that I can still use the CLI from my automation tool? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
