Switching to UMRA from the use of traditional batch files has greatly simplified our annual student and staff moves, adds, and changes.

UMRA is the most fantastic utility I have ever used in my 20 years of Windows Administration.

Introduction

This section describes how user accounts in Novell eDirectory can be managed with User Management Resource Administrator (UMRA). To manage user accounts in Novell eDirectory, the LDAP protocol is used.

  • The main functions of UMRA to manage Novell eDirectory user accounts are:
  • Create user account
  • Set user account password
  • Manage user account attributes
  • Delete user accounts
  • Setup user account group memberships

All of these functions are described in this document. Sample projects that implement these functions are available from the Tools4ever web-site at http://www.tools4ever.com.

The sample projects are implemented and tested in the following environment:

Novell Netware 5.60

Novell eDirectory 8.6.0

The LDAP protocol supports secure (SSL) and not secure sessions. UMRA supports both mechanisms. Because of confidentiality requirements, in most environments, the secure SSL implementations will be used. This chapter includes a section how to setup a secure LDAP environment between the UMRA software and the Novell eDirectory environment.
