 To set user variables
1. In the Authorisation settings dialog box for ADS or LDAP click on Add. The User
variable dialog box appears.
• Local variable: Enter a name for the variable. The name must begin with the
prefix “ELUX” without the initial “$”.
End with the “#” character to transfer more than one value, for example,
ELUXMAIL#=mailLocalAddress. If more than one mail account address resides on
the server, they will be transferred using the nomenclature ELUXMAIL_1,
ELUXMAIL_2, etc. In this case, the variable ELUXMAIL_0 contains the number of
mail addresses that were read.
• LDAP variable: Enter the name of the attribute that the LDAP or Active Directory
should assign the variable. As an example, the LDAP/Active Directory schema
can contain the attribute “displayName”. If you assign this attribute to the variable
ELUXFULLNAME, it will be assigned the value of this attribute during the next
user authorization call.
2. Test: The Thin Client attempts to retrieve the value for the attribute you entered from
the authorization server.
3. Click OK in the User variable dialog box and Apply in the Security tab.
User variables can be entered in the eLux NG starter just like normal parameters. Enter each
variable with the “$” character as prefix. For example, in an ICA application definition enter
$ELUXUSER as the username. This variable will be replaced with the given username when
the application is called.
