In this section:
AdminP features. The driver can support sending requests to the Notes Administration Process (AdminP). These features require Notes 6.0.3 or later.
The following AdminP processes are supported:
A sample of a command to the driver shim that deletes a user is in Sample of Deleting a User.
See Move/Rename. A sample of a command to the driver shim that renames a user is in Sample of Renaming: Modifying a User Last Name.
See Move/Rename. A sample of a command to the driver shim that moves a user is in Sample of Moving a User.
An example of these optional settings are included in Sample of Adding a User.
New add user options. The driver provides new options you can use when adding a user. These features require Notes 6.0.3 or later.
A sample of a command to the driver shim that adds a user is in Sample of Adding a User. Examples of some of these new optional settings are included.
Sending console commands. With appropriate rights given to the driver's user object in Notes, driver policies can send commands to a Domino server console. See Sample of Sending a Command to the Domino Server Console.
The driver is cross-platform.The driver runs on the Domino server platforms of Linux, Solaris, and AIX.
When using the driver on these three platforms, you must load it using the Remote Loader, even if the driver is on the same machine as eDirectory.
Notes client is not required. The 2.0 version of the driver runs on the Domino server.
Named Passwords: The sample driver configuration uses Named Passwords to protect the certifier passwords. One example is provided in the sample driver configuration. For more information, see Using Named Passwords.
Multiple instances of ndsrep. The configuration of multiple instances of ndsrep on the same Domino server is handled automatically.
NDSReg is no longer used. Prior to version 2.0, ndsrep parameters were stored in the Windows* registry using NDSReg. With version 2.0 of the DirXML Driver for Lotus Notes, the ndsrep Domino add-in process reads configuration parameters from a Lotus Notes database (dsrepcfg.nsf), so NDSReg is no longer necessary.
If you are upgrading, you use the movecfg.exe utility to move specific DirXML Driver for Lotus Notes 1.x parameters from the Windows registry to the DirXML Driver for Lotus Notes 2.x parameters location in eDirectory. See Upgrading on Windows.
Support for Identity Manager Password Synchronization: The ability to set and modify the password is provided for the Notes HTTP password. For the traditional Notes ID file password, the password can be set only when a new user is created.
For information about Password Synchronization, see "Password Synchronization across Connected Systems" in the Novell Nsure Identity Manager 2 Administration Guide.
Support for Role-Based Entitlements: The driver configuration now provides the option to use Role-Based Entitlements for provisioning.
Using Role-Based Entitlements is a design decision. Before you choose this option, see "Using Role-Based Entitlements" in the Novell Nsure Identity Manager 2 Administration Guide.
Support for Novell Nsure Audit: The driver makes special use of the ability to specify a status type for any of the status levels defined. For more information, see "Logging and Reporting Using Nsure Audit" in the Novell Nsure Identity Manager 2 Administration Guide.
