To Unix-enable an Active Directory user
- On the management console's Active Directory tab, open the Find box drop-down menu and choose Users.
- Click next to the Search by name box to search for all Active Directory users. Or, enter a portion of your ADuser logon name in the Search by name box and press Enter.
- Double-click ADuser, the Active Directory user name, to open its properties.
- On the Unix Account tab, select the Unix-enabled option.
It populates the properties with default Unix attribute values.
- Make other modifications to these settings, if necessary, and click OK to Unix-enable the user.
Note: There are additional settings that you can set using PowerShell which allows you to validate entries for the GECOS, Home Directory, and Login Shell attributes. For more information, see Use Safeguard Authentication Services PowerShell.
Once enabled for Unix, you can log on to the host with that Active Directory user's log on name and password.
