Safeguard Authentication Services 5.0.4 - ARS IP Administration Guide

Publish Web Interface Extensions

Installing and then publishing the Web interface extensions adds a number of pages and commands to the ActiveRoles Server Web interface, enabling the management of Unix-specific information in Active Directory.

These pages and commands include:

  • Unix Properties on User Account.

    View or modify Unix-related properties of a (missing or bad snippet) user account.

  • Unix Properties on Group.

    View or modify Unix-related properties of a Windows group.

To publish Web interface extensions

  1. Start the ActiveRoles Server Web interface in Windows Internet Explorer.

    		NOTE: The PROD.NAME only works with Internet Explorer.
    1. Start Internet Explorer.

    2. Navigate to the following URL:

      http://<IP Address>/ARServerAdmin

    3. At the login screen, enter your user name and password.

  2. From the Customization menu on the main page of the ActiveRoles Server Web Interface, choose the Reload option.

    		 NOTE: If you do not see the Customization link on the ActiveRoles Server Web interface on Windows 2008 R2, run the browser with elevated privileges.

Unix-Enable a User

You can manage the Unix-specific information for a (missing or bad snippet) user account from the ActiveRoles Server web interface.

To Unix-enable a user

  1. Click the Directory Management link on the home page of the ActiveRoles Server.
  2. From the ActiveRoles Server directory tree, navigate to Active Directory and select the Users folder under your managed domain.
  3. In the details pane, click a user name link.
  4. From the drop-down menu, select Unix Properties.
  5. On the Unix Account tab, select the Unix Enabled option.

  6. Modify any of the Unix-related properties.

    The UID Number is the unique identifier for a Unix user. Ideally, each Windows user is assigned a unique UID number. By default the Integration Pack generates a unique ID automatically. If you change the User ID, the Integration Pack checks to ensure the specified value is unique among Unix-enabled users.

    		 NOTE: The Primary Group box displays the Domain Name of the group corresponding to the Primary Group ID. You can click Change to browse Unix-enabled groups to find the Primary Group by name.
  7. Click Save to commit your changes.

Unix-Disable a User
