Linking entities with AD information

Hello all!

I created an entity Rooty entity > UO_test_unit entity. Now, I'm trying to link this entity to AD in a way that all the users in a ceratin Organizational Unit (in AD) automatically get this default entity when they log in to the system, but I don't know how to set this up. Basically, I'm trying to implement horizontal security by using entities and link them directly to AD.

GLPi has several fields in "Entities > Advanced Information" but I don't know whaqt is expected to be filled into them.

The fields are:

Information in inventory tool (TAG) representing the entity
LDAP directory information attribute representing the entity
Mail domain surrogates entity
LDAP directory of an entity - ok, that's my AD and it is already set up.
LDAP filter associated to the entity (if necessary)

Please help!

Re: Linking entities with AD information

If you have only one (or just a couple) OU you have no need to fill "Entities > Advanced Information"

Just setup Authentication and Authorizations assignment rules.
You would have to setup something like this
(LDAP)DistinguishedName    finished by    OU=OU_NAME,OU=Domain Users,DC=example,DC=com
---
Entity    Assign ...
Profiles    Assign ...
Active    Assign    Yes
Recursive    Assign    Yes

Re: Linking entities with AD information

Hello, I don't understand what should I do with the information provided by sgeorge. I have a root entity with 17 sub-entities and I don't know what to fill in "Entities > Advanced Information" to be sure that I can import users from AD using rules, filters or LDAP information. I will be grateful if anybody provides help.

Re: Linking entities with AD information

I still have same problem.
I have 3 son of entity. I already written Rules for each Entity.
But when i import user to each Entity. it will import those users to all Entity.
I think that problem related to filter but i don't know to fill information in "Advanced information" on Entiry

------
Information in inventory tool (TAG) representing the entity
LDAP directory information attribute representing the entity
Mail domain surrogates entity
LDAP directory of an entity - ok, that's my AD and it is already set up.
LDAP filter associated to the entity (if necessary)
------

Anyone give me advice for this problem?
