LDAP Groups (--ldapgroups)

Objects with this attribute

Usage

Object Manager LDAP Groups Enter one or more distinguished names (DNs) of groups in an LDAP directory.
Command line --ldapgroups group_dn... Enter one or more DNs of groups in an LDAP directory.

Description

Allows you to give an application or group of applications to group of users that match the DNs of groups in an LDAP directory.

Use LDAP-style names for the list and use a comma (,) separator instead of a slash (/). See the example below.

If a group matches any of the groups in the LDAP directory server, the members of that group will receive the application or group of applications on their webtop. These applications are in addition to any applications they would have on the webtop for their login profile.

The LDAP directory server used is the one specified for the LDAP login authority on the Tarantella Login properties panel in Array Manager.

This attribute is only available if you have installed a Directory Services Integration license key.

Currently this feature is only supported on Sun™ ONE (formerly Netscape or iPlanet) version 4.1+ directory servers.

Examples

--ldapgroups cn=managers,ou=Sales,dc=indigo-insurance,dc=com cn=managers,ou=Marketing,dc=indigo-insurance,dc=com

Assigns the application or groups of applications to users in the managers group in the Sales and Marketing departments.
