Sun Java System Access Manager 7.1 Administration Reference

User Creation Attributes

This attribute is used by the Active Directory authentication module instance when the Active Directory server is configured as an external Active Directory server. It contains a mapping of attributes between a local and an external Directory Server. This attribute has the following format:

attr1|externalattr1

attr2|externalattr2

When this attribute is populated, the values of the external attributes are read from the external Directory Server and are set for the internal Directory Server attributes. The values of the external attributes are set in the internal attributes only when the User Profileattribute (in the Core Authentication module type) is set to Dynamically Created and the user does not exist in local Directory Server instance. The newly created user will contain the values for internal attributes, as specified in User Creation Attributes List, with the external attribute values to which they map.
