Understanding Bindery Services
Setting a Bindery Context
For example, suppose you want to set the bindery context for the server
PROD1_SRV2 in this tree to OU=HQ so that user ESAYERS can log in to
that server with a bindery login. Using nwcm you would type
nwcm -s ds_bindery=’HQ.MFG.ACME’
This command sets the bindery context to the OU=HQ container and
provides the path NDS uses to find that container. In this case, the command
specifies that the bindery context OU=HQ is contained in
OU=MFG.O=ACME.
CAUTION: Be careful when changing a server’s bindery context. Removing a container from that
server’s bindery context prevents all users in that container from using bindery
services.
For Multiple Servers in the Same Bindery Context
If a user needs access to several servers, you could use the same container in
the bindery context for all of those servers; however, Server objects do not
need to be located in their bindery context.
The following figure illustrates how to locate each Server object within the
same container as the User object.
