Integrating Active Directory with NetVault

NetVault installed on a Windows or Linux machine can communicate with Microsoft Active Directory (AD). Additionally, NetVault installed on a Linux machine can communicate with OpenLDAP Directory Services. Integrating AD with NetVault enables role-based access control in NetVault. It lets users log in to NetVault using their AD credentials. It also lets AD users manage NetVault users.

Adding an AD group to NetVault and specifying privileges, levels of access, and notifications for the group ensures that members of the group have the corresponding access from the first time that they log on.

Considerations for Linux-based NetVault

Before you integrate Active Directory (AD) with a Linux-based installation of NetVault, consider the following conditions and prerequisites:

Samba Winbind: Under the [global] section, smb.conf must have the following entry:
SSSD: under the [domain/<domain name>] section, sssd.conf must have the following entry:
Samba Winbind: Under the [global] section, smb.conf must have the following entry:
SSSD: Under the [domain/<domain name>], to retrieve domain controller groups and to fetch groups from child and trusted domains, respectively, the sssd.conf must have the following entries:

Managing AD users

The following list identifies what various users can and cannot do within NetVault as it pertains to Active Directory (AD):

All NetVault MSP administrators can view all local and AD NetVault users.
A local NetVault Administrator or an AD NetVault user with administrative privileges can change user-based information that is accessed by using the Modify Details option as this information is stored in the NetVault Database. However, if the secure mode is enabled, the NetVault administrator and other users are allowed to edit or change only E-mail 2 and E-mail 3 of an AD NetVault user.

On Linux-based NetVault Server, the workstation field cannot be fetched, hence the user is unable to login. We recommended that workstation should not be set in AD for Linux Server.

An administrator can perform the following tasks in NetVault:
