To Configure a Security Manager's Environment

Use this task to configure the environment for a security manager.

Note: When you set this configuration, you can no longer use the Enterprise Server user administration functionality to manage users. You must do this through your normal Microsoft user management interface.
  1. On the Enterprise Server Administration screen, in the left pane, select Security.
  2. Select the Security Managers tab, and in the list of configured security managers, select the one to configure, and click Edit.

    The Configure Security Options screen is displayed.

  3. In the configuration area at the bottom of the screen, add or edit the [LDAP] configuration to add settings you want follows: For example:
    Note: In the example below, the line: user class="user" sets that Enterprise Server uses Microsoft user configurations, and you cannot change these through the Enterprise Server security user interface. Omit this line to configure the default behaviour, which is that you can configure user information stored in an LDAP.
    [LDAP]
    base="DC=somecorp,DC=com"
    user class="user"
    user container="CN=users"
    group container="CN=Enterprise Server Groups,CN=MF"
    resource container="CN=Enterprise Server Resources,CN=MF"
