Configuring the YaST Group and User Administration
Modules
Use the YaST LDAP client to adapt the YaST modules for user and group administration
and to extend them as needed. Define templates with default values for the individual
attributes to simplify the data registration. The presets created here are stored as LDAP
objects in the LDAP directory. The registration of user data is still done with the regular
YaST modules for user and group management. The registered data is stored as LDAP
objects on the server.
