Map selected users
By default, all users extracted from AD are mapped to IRC users. To enable mapping for selected AD users, configure the AuthProvider.xml file and add user details in the ADUsers.xml.
The AuthProvider.xml file enables you to specify, if selective AD users are to be mapped or all AD users are to be mapped.
ManualLookup in AuthProvider.xml
Configure the XML as follows:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| XML file name and path | [InstallPath]\Settings\AuthProvider.xml |
| Tag | <AuthenticationProviders>
|
| Node | <ManualLookup>false</ManualLookup>
|
| Configuration setting | Set the value of the node <ManualLookup> to:
|
| Default Value | The default value is False. |
To allow access to specific AD users, enter the user login name details in the l file. During user mapping, users are picked up from the ADUsers.xml. Only the users specified in this xml file will be mapped.
ADUsers.xml
Enter the users’ details in the ADUsers.xml file as follows:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| XML file name and path | [InstallPath]\Settings\ADUsers.xml |
| Tag | <ADUserIDS>
|
| Node | <ADUserID>user login name</ADUserID>
|
| Configuration setting | To map specific users, add the node <ADUserID> user login
name </ADUserID>. For example you have added
<ADUserID>a</ADUserID>,
<ADUserID>b</ADUserID>. The users with the login names
a and b will be mapped. |
| Default Value | If <ManualLookup> node in the
AuthProvider.xml is set to true, and if no users are
specified in ADUsers.xml, only Administrator will be
available on the Users page on User Interface. |
