Targeting Active Directory

For each Active Directory domain, add a target (Manage th system >Resources >Target systems):

  • Type is Legacy Active Directory .

  • Address uses syntax described in Defining the target system address .

  • Administrator ID and Password are the credentials for the target system administrator you configured earlier .

    It is recommended that you write the administrator ID in the format:

    • NETBIOS\userid

      or

    • userid@domain.com

    This is required in some cases, including where:

    • Bravura Security Fabric is installed on a Windows XP workstation

    • The plugin-winsvc plugin is configured to update service, scheduled task, and iis directory credentials (Bravura Privilege)

    • The nrcifs program is configured to manage resources whose access is mediated by membership in Active Directory groups (Bravura Identity)

    • The List entire forest target address option is specified and Bravura Security Fabric will be acting on objects outside the domain specified in the Domain or domain controller target address option.

  • Set Program to generate a list of target systems to dcselect to accelerate password replication in Active Directory domains .

  • By default, all connectors run the Bravura Security Fabric processes on the Bravura Security Fabric server, as the local psadmin account. To enable the target system administrator to run those processes, select the Run as? checkbox.

The full list of target system parameters is explained here.
