I am using the SAP Data Acquisition Connector 1.28.4 with Lumira Desktop 1.28.4. I would like to use a shared OLAP Connection on our local BI platform. However, I am not able to make Windows Authentication work to connect to the BI Platform and download the list of available OLAP connections.
The resulting Windows does not show an error message, just "Not Connected". If I change the Authentication Type to SAP, I am able to authenticate successfully.
I have used Fiddler to trace the network traffic, and I see this message returned from the network call:
"Active Directory Authentication failed to log you on. Please contact your system administrator to make sure you are a member of a valid mapped group and try again. If you are not a member of the default domain, enter your user name as UserName@DNS_DomainName, and then try again. (FWM 00006)"
I have a feeling that on the BI Platform we need to change the settings in the Tomcat configuration as this note suggests:

We had to do something similar for the Web Application Container Server (WACS) settings to make the "Save As" work to BI Platform.Still, I would appreciate other ideas and I wanted to document the issue and resolution.
