Understanding Bindery Services

Setting a Bindery Context

For example, given the partitions deﬁned in Figure 4-4, you could set the

bindery context of ACCT_SRV1 to any one of the following containers:

• OU=HQ

• O=ACME

• OU=DETROIT

Figure 4-4 Bindery Contexts for a Specific Server

This Directory tree represents three partitions of the ACMECORP tree. If

there were only one partition, the bindery context could be set to any OU, O,

or set of OU and O in the tree. But because multiple partitions exist, any

context you set in a different partition must include the path all the way to

the [Root] of the tree.

Nevertheless, the bindery context must specify the containers that hold the

users that want to log in to that server under bindery services.
