I am very impressed with Version 6 of UserManager.
Without referring to a manual or on-line help, I was able to use the program to create 599 user accounts, create home directories, and their roaming profiles with the proper security controls in minutes, a process that would have taken days to do by hand. I was contemplating writing a Window Script to perform this function, but decided I di... | | read more... |

Architecture
|
| |
User Management Resource Administrator's architecture is centered around
4 basic themes: organization, interfaces, engine and network.
This architecture enables User Management Resource Administrator to bridge
organizational structures such as HR information systems or departmental
structures such as the Helpdesk to the network level of the Active Directory.
|
|
Organization |
| The organization level represents the applications or departments within
an organization. Large organization usually have Human Resources Information
Systems for employee data storage or Phone Systems to store employee location
and contact data. Large educational institutions have Student Information
Systems as warehouse for student-related data. Organizations also have departments,
such as Helpdesk, Human Resources and IT, dedicated to operating these information
systems and linking them to a network environment such as Active Directory.
These applications and departments requires an interface to input their data
for processing into the Active Directory. |
|
Interfaces |
| When following the separation between applications and departments within
an organization, the same level of separation works for the interfaces level.
The applications require an automated interface to supply employee-related
data to the engine for translation into Active Directory user accounts. On
the other hand, departments require interfaces for manual user input using
Windows applications or web browsers. |
|
Engine |
| The User Management Resource Administrator engine handles the input from
the automated and user input interfaces from the previous level. The engine
itself is triple-layered: authentication - processing - execution.
The authentication part
is responsible for authenticating user accounts when using form-based delegated
user input. The end-user uses the Windows or Web forms client to
connect to the engine, which authenticates the user and downloads the list
of forms delegated for this user. When the user submits the form to the engine,
the information from the form is processed by the engine and executed on
the Active Directory after validation. Forms are only created and modified
by network administrator, then published to end-users by assigning it to
Windows user accounts or groups. The processing part is
responsible for data processing and validation. This part of the engine is
controlled through
the script which has been assigned to either the automated or form-based
input data. All data from the interface passes through the script, which
can only be created and configured by a network administrator, and will be
submitted for execution. The execution part can be optionally configured
to hold jobs in a queue waiting approval. IT staff can then approve or disapprove
items in this job queue to prevent cluttering of the Active Directory. |
|
Network
|
| The network level represents all network resources containing user-account-related
data such as files, mail and account. The User Management Resource Administrator
engine natively communicates with Active Directory and the NT SAM to store,
modify or delete user account information. When a job is submitted through
the engine, all user account information and resources can be created directly
on Windows level. This includes Active Directory related settings such as
user account, Organizational Unit assignment, group memberships, all attributes,
Terminal Server settings, dial-in configuration and much more. User-related
resources
includes
home
directories
and shares with permissions on file servers, and also mailbox creation and
configuration on Exchange servers. |
