Rich, hello again and thanks for all your help.This Email related to password VS account synchronization. We'll use my script to create/delete accounts thereby having an identical user base inboth RedHat LDAP and Windows.Therefore, we'd like to use only the 'password' mechanism of 'Windows SYNC'. I can see, clearly on the RedHat LDAP server how to disable account/group SYNC on the windows side: - Launch console | Directory Server Configuration TAB | click on replication agreement | uncheck bothNew Windows Users Sync and New Windows Groups SyncAnd from the document I can read how to disable account/group SYNC on the LDAP side: _http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/ag/8.0/Windows_Sync-Using_Windows_Sync.html#Using_Windows_Sync-Synchronizing_Users_ < Setting |ntUserCreateNewAccount| and |ntUserDeleteNewAccount| on Directory Server entries < allows the Directory Manager fine-grained control over which users within the< synchronized subtree will be synched on Active DirectoryIs that all I need to do to disable account/group sync but retain password sync ?
Yes, I believe so.
Thanks again for your help, Dave---------- > Date: Wed, 3 Dec 2008 10:56:30 -0700 > From: rmeggins@xxxxxxxxxx > To: lambam80@xxxxxxxxxxx > CC: fedora-directory-users@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: 'Account Disabled' Windows Sync Directory Server red cross> > lambam80@xxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > > Rich, hello and thanks for the quick reply. > > > > You write: > > > > < Yes, this appears to be a bug in windows sync > > > > How might I get further information - is there a BUG number/report ? > > Should I try and log a BUG ?
