When configuring an Active Directory (AD) server in senhasegura, it is crucial to correctly enter the Distinguished Name (DN). The DN helps to clearly define the path in the AD directory where the server should look for information. Proper configuration of the DN components, especially the Domain Components (DCs), is essential for effective and accurate integration with AD.
Distinguished Name Configuration:
- Specification of DCs: - When configuring the AD server, it is necessary to specify all relevant DCs. For example, if your server’s domain is “senhasegura.com”, you will need to configure the DN as:
DC=senhasegura, DC=com
- This configuration identifies the critical components within the Active Directory structure.
- Use of the ‘OU’ (Organizational Unit):
-
The ‘OU’ is mainly used in group synchronization. It defines a specific Organizational Unit within AD from which groups should be synchronized.
-
The ‘OU’ is not required in the initial DN configuration for the AD server.
