Enabling LDAP Directory Services Authentication to Microsoft Active Directory 327

verified, Onboard Administrator queries the Directory to discover the names of the Active Directory groups

the user is a member of. Onboard Administrator then matches those group names against the Directory
Group names that exist in Onboard Administrator. In the following example, Onboard Administrator

Directory Groups are created in this step. The group name is used to determine LDAP users' group

membership and must match one of the following five properties of a directory group: the name,

distinguished name, common name, Display Name, or SAM Account Name.
To create a directory group:

1.

In Onboard Administrator, navigate to the Users>Authentications>Directory Groups link.

2.

To add a new directory group, click New.

3.

Create a group named OA Admins, which is the same name created in the Active Directory.

NOTE:

Group names with spaces might not be supported on some LDAP servers.

4.

Assign this group full administrative privileges over all server bays and interconnect bays, and then click
Add.
