Testimonial: We are very happy with UMRA. It gave us the possibillity to maintain our network fully automatically. At the beginning of the schoolyear I only have to watch and see how the new useraccounts are created according to our main userdatabase. Jan D.

Add directory service object

Finally the user account is created with script action Add directory service object (LDAP). During this action, the UMRA software actually communicates with the LDAP Server.

Figure 21: Add directory service object (LDAP) script action.

The action has 3 attributes:

1. LDAP session: The session is specified by a variable and must have been initialized with a previously executed action Setup LDAP session.
2. New object name: The common name of the new LDAP object. The name must be specified as a distinguished name and depends on the directory service structure. In this example, the account is created in organizational unit UserAccounts, part of the organization Tools4ever of the eDirectory tree. The first part of the new name is composed from the 2 variables %GivenName% and %SurName%. The total name must be unique in the directory service.
3. Object data: The modification data structure that is the result of script action Load LDAP modification data. The data is referenced using a variable, %LdapData% in this example.
