CONFIGURING

Mapping Active Directory fields and groups with Domino Directory fields and groups
Use the Field Mappings and Group Mappings tabs on the ADSync Options dialog box to map specific Active Directory fields and groups to Domino® Person and Group document fields. Person and Group documents are stored in the Domino Directory. Mapping is different for the User and Group Field Mapping object classes.

About this task

You can modify any of the initial mappings, create mappings, or create Notes® field names. When an Active Directory object is created or is synchronized with Notes, all field values in the mapped Active Directory object are copied to corresponding fields in the Person or Group document in the Domino Directory. If necessary, fields are created in the Person or Group document and existing field values are overwritten. This is one-way synchronization. No changes are made to the Active Directory object.

Field Mappings in ADSync, unlike other settings, are different for each Active Directory domain.

To create group mappings

Procedure

1. From the (Microsoft™ Management Console) MMC, choose Domino Directory Synchronization.

2. Click Group Mappings.

3. Complete these mappings as necessary, and then click Apply and OK.

Table 1. Options for Group mappings

In Active Directory	In Domino Directory
Security	Click to assign a group type when registering security groups in Notes. Choose one: Multi-purpose -- Use for a group that has multiple purposes, for example, mail and ACLs. Mail only -- Use for mailing list groups. Access Control List only -- Use for server and database access authentication only. Deny List only -- Use to control access to servers. Deny List only is typically used to prevent terminated employees from accessing servers, but this type of group can be used to prevent any user from accessing particular servers. The Administration Process cannot delete any member from this group.
Distribution	Click to assign a group type when registering distribution groups in Notes. Choose one: Multi-purpose -- Use for a group that has multiple purposes -- for example, mail and ACLs. Mail only -- Use for mailing list groups. Access Control List only -- Use for server and database access authentication only. Deny List only -- Use to control access to servers. Deny List only is typically used to prevent terminated employees from accessing servers, but this type of group can be used to prevent any user from accessing particular servers. The Administration Process cannot delete any member from this group.
