Publisher and Subscriber Channels

The driver supports Publisher and Subscriber channels:

• The Publisher reads events from Active Directory for the domain hosted on the server that the driver shim is connecting to and submits that information to eDirectory.
• The Subscriber watches for additions and modifications to eDirectory directory objects and makes changes to Active Directory that reflect those changes.

When the driver is configured so that both Active Directory and eDirectory are allowed to update a specific attribute, the most recent change will determine the attribute value, except in the case of merge operations which are controlled by the filters and merge authority.
