two minutes) the users configured there will appear under the previously set
Observer group
name
in the
User admin
.
Note
: The camera access rights can be set for regular individual users and Active Directory groups
but not for regular user groups or individual Active Directory users.
Note
: By adding extra servers on the
Active Directory configuration
page it is possible to integrate
multiple Active Directory groups.
Hint
: In case that the configuration does not work please make sure that the configuration options are
correct. For example no leading or trailing space must be included in the configuration (e.g.
"DC=netavis,DC=net " with a trailing space does not work if the directory address is netavis.net).
