Creating New Directory Entries
A dynamic group automatically includes users based on one or more attributes in
their entry. For example, you can create a dynamic group called California Sales
that automatically includes any entry containing the attributes
department=sales
Whenever you search for members of the California Sales group, the results
contain all entries located by the URL.
A certificate group includes all users who have a certificate containing a common
attribute. For example, you can create a certificate group called California Western
Sales whose members share these attributes:
an individual user logs on to a server, if all of these attributes are found in his
certificate, the user is automatically recognized as belonging to the group. If the
user's certificate does not contain these attributes, he is not recognized as a member
of the California Western Sales group and does not receive the same access,
privileges, or permissions as group members.
