I am trying to sort out a couple of things in my mind, so please forgive the
plebian topic.

Some of the articles I saw online concerning using FDS for authentication states
to use the 'Users and Groups' tab from the management console. However, when I
try to create a user, group, or OU, it ends up being forced into the
NetscapeRoot branch instead of the directory. I see no way offhand on how to
change this.
When you select the Users and Groups tab, go to the User menu, select Change Directory..., fill in the correct information, and press Ok.
Re-reading the manuals several times for making entries suggests that tab is not
to be used for "normal" user/group/OU entries for authentication and/or user
information queries. Instead, I should have opened the directory server itself
from the Management Console, clicked on the Directory tab, expanded the
appropriate branch, selected the appropriate OU, and added a user there instead.

Am I correct? Is there actually a way to change the target from the 'Users and
Groups' tab within the Management Console so that I can use that tab instead to
make quick additions or changes?

Thank you,
Tom
