Managing NDS Users in GroupWise

When integration with GroupWise is enabled, the NDS adapter can manage the GroupWise attributes of NDS users. The NDS adapter supports adding and removing NDS users from a GroupWise Post Office. It also retrieves or modifies other GroupWise account attribute, including AccountID, GatewayAccess, and DistributionLists.

Enabling GroupWise Integration

To activate the integration with GroupWise, you must define a value in the GroupWise Domain DN resource attribute. This value specifies the DN of the GroupWise domain which will managed. An example value for this attribute is

CN=gw_dom.ou=GroupWise.o=MyCorp

The NDS Tree resource attribute defines the NDS tree under which the GroupWise domain is expected to reside is. That is, the GroupWise domain must be in the same tree as the NDS users managed by the adapter.

Managing a NDS User’s GroupWise Post Office

The account attribute GW_PostOffice represents the GroupWise Post Office.

To add an NDS user into a GroupWise Post Office, set the GW_PostOffice account attribute to the name of an existing Post Office that is associated with the GroupWise domain.

To move an NDS user to a different GroupWise Post Office, set the GW_PostOffice account attribute to the name of the new Post Office that is associated with the GroupWise domain.

To remove an NDS user from its Post Office, set the GW_PostOffice account attribute to the same value as the GroupWise Delete Pattern resource attribute. The default value for GroupWise Delete Pattern resource attribute is *TRASH*.
