4.3.2 Allowing sync attributes for entries
Directory Server and Active Directory synchronization unify some Unix and Windows-specific
directory attributes; to carry over a Directory Server entry to Active Directory, the entry must
have ntUser attributes. (Likewise, Windows entries must have posixAccount attributes.)
Windows (NT) attributes must an be enabled on entries. By default, these attributes are added
manually to individual entries. The user edit windows have links on the left for NT User to allow
Directory Server entries to contain Windows-specific attributes for synchronization.
It is also possible to configure the server so that all new entries will automatically possess the
ntUser object class; this is described in the Directory Server—Active Directory synchronization
chapter of the HP-UX Directory Server administrator guide.
NOTE:
Any Directory Server entry must have the ntUser object class and required attributes added in
order to be synchronized to Active Directory.
To enable synchronization:
1. Select or create a user, and click the NT User link.
2. Enable the NT account, and check how the entry will be synchronized (meaning, whether
a new entry will be created and whether that entry should be deleted on Active Directory
if it is delete on Directory Server).
