User directory entries

Use this screen to view a list of users, groups, and computers that you imported from a user directory such as Microsoft Active Directory, Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM), or Lotus Domino. CSV files are also supported. These users, groups, and computers are possible sources or destinations of sensitive information in your organization.

Shown are the name of the user or group, the type of entry (user or group), the name of the directory server from which the entries were imported, and the distinguished name (DN) of the entry. A DN is the name that uniquely identifies the entry in the directory. It is made up of attribute=value pairs, separated by commas.

There are likely too many users and groups to display on 1 screen. Use the Search for field to filter the display to just users and groups that meet certain criteria. You can filter user directory entry resources by entering free text or an asterisk (*) into this field. (Asterisk means search all.)

Use the from type field to select the type of entry to search for: All, Computer, Group, User, or OU. For users, Data Security searches the Name, Login Name, Email, and DN fields. For groups, it searches the Name, Email, and DN fields. For other types of entries, it searches only the Name and DN.

Use the in field to select the specific directory server to search, or all servers.

Click Apply to apply the filter.

Use the radio controls to navigate from one screen to the next, or to the first or last.

 

Note  Because this is a user directory import, you can view the list but not change or add anything.

Click Settings to add or set the order of user directory servers or initiate a user import.
