77.1 eDirectory Rights

By default, ConsoleOne
eDirectory rights when you add the user to a post office. You can, however, configure GroupWise
Administrator to not assign rights automatically, in which case you would need to manually assign
eDirectory rights.
The following sections provide information about how to configure ConsoleOne to automatically set
GroupWise users' eDirectory rights and how to manually set these rights:
Section 77.1.1, "Configuring ConsoleOne to Automatically Set eDirectory Rights When
Creating User Accounts," on page 1149
Section 77.1.2, "Manually Granting eDirectory Rights," on page 1150
77.1.1 Configuring ConsoleOne to Automatically Set
eDirectory Rights When Creating User Accounts
By default, the GroupWise Administrator snap-in for ConsoleOne is configured to automatically set
the eDirectory rights required by a GroupWise user. This is done when you create the user's
GroupWise account.
For GroupWise Administrator to be able to set these rights, you must have sufficient administrative
rights to eDirectory. If you don't have sufficient rights to manually set the user's access rights,
GroupWise Administrator does not have sufficient rights to set them automatically. In general, we
recommend that you be an Admin equivalent. For more information, see
Administrator Rights," on page
If you choose not to grant eDirectory rights automatically, you should manually set the rights to
ensure that users have appropriate access. For instructions, see
eDirectory Rights," on page
To configure whether or not GroupWise Administrator automatically assigns rights to users when
you create GroupWise accounts:
1 In ConsoleOne, click Tools > GroupWise System Operations > System Preferences to display
the GroupWise System Preferences dialog box.
