Step 2: Select objects to publish

Select the objects you want to include in the collection. Consider that only mail-enabled or mailbox-enabled objects can be published.

You can populate a collection in the following ways:

•
Add a container; all objects in that container will be included in the collection.
•
Add objects (user, groups, and contacts).
•
Import a list of objects from a file. This file should list the distinguished names (DNs) of the objects, one DN per line.
To add a container
1
Click Add Container.
2
Click Load to retrieve the Active Directory containers tree.
3
Select the containers you need, and click Add.
To add objects
1
Click Add Objects.
2
To display the objects you need, use filtering:
•
Domain—displays objects of the selected domain only.
•
Additional filter—specifies an additional LDAP filter to reduce the scope of displayed objects. For example, to display only users from the list of Active Directory objects, specify the following LDAP filter: (objectClass=user).
•
Maximum number of displayed objects—specifies the maximum number of objects to display.
* 
NOTE: If you add a group to a collection, group members are not synchronized automatically by default. If you want them to be synchronized, select the added group, click Settings, and then choose the Synchronize members option in the Settings dialog box.

Nested groups are not included in a collection. For example, suppose Group 2 is a member of Group 1. If Group 1 is included in the collection, Group 2 will not be published. To publish Group 2, you must include it in the collection explicitly.
Configuring synchronization settings

From the Select Objects dialog box, you can configure synchronization options by clicking Settings. For example, for Active Directory containers, you can select object classes to be synchronized.

It is recommended that you use this dialog box to configure synchronization of group members (they are not synchronized automatically by default).

To synchronize group members
•
Select the group you have added, click Settings, and then choose the Synchronize members option.

Step 3: Specify additional LDAP filters

If you have added containers to be published, you may need to specify additional LDAP filters for each class of objects included in these containers.

* 
NOTE: Creating LDAP filters is a fairly complex task that should be performed by advanced users only. LDAP filters must be RFC2254-compliant.

For example, to exclude from publication all users who either belong to the HR department of your company or are members of the HRGroup group, apply the following filter to the User class:

(!(|(department=HR)(memberOf=CN=HRGroup,OU=Groups, DC=acme,DC=com)))

Step 4: Exclude well-known objects

Specify if any built-in accounts, containers, or single objects should be excluded from the collection.

•
To exclude built-in groups or accounts (such as Domain Admins and Guest), select Exclude well-known users and groups.
•
To exclude a container (and all objects inside), select the Exclude the following objects check box and click Add Containers. All objects in the containers you select will be excluded from the collection.
•
To exclude particular objects, click the Add Objects button, and select the objects from the list.

Step 5: Select object attributes to be synchronized

Specify which attributes should be synchronized for each object class. You can do the following:

•
Select attributes manually from the list
•
Use predefined sets of attributes: All Attributes set or Minimum set
•
Save the set of selected attributes for the future use as a preset
•
The Minimum set includes the only attributes required to create a stub object in another forest.
To see what attributes comprise the minimum set for a class
•
Expand the node for that class and click Minimum.
* 
NOTE: All object attributes in the Minimum set are mandatory, so you are not allowed to clear the check boxes next to them.

If any object attribute included in the Minimum set is not valid, the object cannot be published.
To save a set of selected attributes
•
Click Save Preset. If you need to publish an object with the set of attributes saved as a preset, click the Load Preset button.
To use an extended Active Directory schema
•
Click Add Attributes and select the necessary attributes from the list.
* 
NOTE: To synchronize extended schema attributes to other forests, their schemas must be extended with the same attributes as well.
