Chapter 4. Managing entries in your LDAP directory

This chapter will give you instructions how to manage the different LDAP entries in your directory.

Please note that not all account types are manageable with the free LAM release. LAM Pro provides some more account types (e.g. group of names, aliases, ...) and modules (e.g. Kopano, custom scripts, ...) to support additional LDAP object classes. All LAM Pro features are marked in this manual.

Basic page layout:

After the login LAM will present you its main page. It consists of a header part which is equal for all pages and the content area which covers most the of the page.

The header part includes the links to manage all account types (e.g. users and groups). There is also the logout link and a tools entry.

When you login the you will see an account listing in the content area.

Here you can create, delete and modify accounts. Use the action buttons at the left or double click on an entry to edit it.

The suffix selection box allows you to list only the accounts which are located in a subtree of your LDAP directory.

You can change the number of shown entries per page with "Change settings". Depending on the account type there may be additional settings. E.g. the user list can convert group numbers to group names.

When you select to edit an entry then LAM will show all its data on a tabbed view. There is one tab for each functional part of the account. You can set default values by loading an account profile.
