Configuring eDirectory Objects to be Served by NIS Server
NIS Server recognises eDirectory users/groups as NIS users/group only if
they have a UNIX profile attached to them. To configure existing eDirectory
user/group objects to be served by NIS Server, complete the following steps.
1
Choose the eDirectory User/Group object > right-click Properties >
UNIX Profile. Enter the required fields in this page and move to the Other
tab.
2
In the Other tab, choose Add > nisUserGroupDomain attribute.
3
Browse and select the NIS Domain Object to which you want to
attach these Users and Groups.
This is a multi-valued attribute and you can attach as many NIS Domains
to this as you want. These Users and Groups now belong to these NIS
Domains and will be listed under all these domains.
4
Verify if the eDirectory Context under which these User and Groups exist
is listed in the NIS Domain object. Right-click Domain Object >
Properties > Memberships tab.
You can also create new NIS maps and NIS map records under NIS
domain object as you create normal eDirectory objects.
NOTE:
No objects will be there under the passwd and group map objects in the
domain.
