The Linux and UNIX Settings driver can automate enabling OES users for LUM. The driver performs the following steps:
Assigns uidNumber from the NxSettings style sheet or the Linux/UNIX Config object.
Adds Public rights to the following RFC 2307 attributes:
Adds the user to a group enabled for LUM. (The group is chosen during driver import.)
Sets the user’s gidNumber equal to the gidNumber of the LUM-enabled group.
Adds the object class uamPosixUser to the user.
If you have a very large number of users, you might not want all users to be in a single static group. You can define a dynamic group as your LUM-enabled group.
To use a dynamic group as your LUM-enabled group:
Define the dynamic group according to your needs.
Set the GCV named Add Users to LUM-Enabled Group to No.
(The GCV named LUM-Enabled Group DN is not used in this case.)
For details about LUM, see the Linux User Management Technology Guide, which is available from the Novell® OES documentation Web site.
