Select Users or Groups from an Active Directory or LDAP Repository
Follow these guidelines when searching for users or groups in an Active Directory or LDAP repository:
The Active Directory or LDAP authentication system performs a user search based on the attribute mapping specified in the authentication configuration, and displays the users that fit the search criteria.
In the
Search Criteria panel, create the search criteria by selecting the attribute and the condition from the list boxes, typing the search string in the text box and selecting
Equals or
NotEquals.
CentraSite treats the search string as a partial string. For example, if you enter
al, then
Alex,
Allen, and
Sally all fit the search criteria.
You can use an asterisk (*) as a wildcard in the search string.
CentraSite replaces the wildcard symbol with as many characters as necessary.
Search strings are not case or accent sensitive.
To add more search conditions, click the plus button. If all conditions must be met, select
AND Condition. If only one condition must be met, select
OR Condition.
