Returning User Group Information
Use the information in this section to return User Group information (and
assist with authorization) once authentication is successful.
From LDAP/LDAPS
When an LDAP/LDAPS authentication is successful, the PX3 determines
the permissions for a given user based on the permissions of the user's
role. Your remote LDAP server can provide these user role names by
returning an attribute named as follows:
rciusergroup attribute type: string
This may require a schema extension on your LDAP/LDAPS server.
Consult your authentication server administrator to enable this attribute.
In addition, for Microsoft
®
Active Directory
®
, the standard LDAP
memberOf is used.
From Microsoft Active Directory
Note: This should be attempted only by an experienced Active Directory
®
administrator.
Returning user role information from Microsoft's
®
Active Directory for
Windows 2000
®
operating system server requires updating the
LDAP/LDAPS schema. See your Microsoft documentation for details.
1. Install the schema plug-in for Active Directory. See Microsoft Active
Directory documentation for instructions.
