Working with user directory servers
Deployment and Installation Center | Data Security Solutions | Version 7.7.x
If you have one or more user directory servers, such as Microsoft Active Directory or Lotus Domino, you should integrate your servers into Websense Data Security configuration. Once you have set up server details and imported users and groups using TRITON - Data Security, you can base your administrator login authentication on user directory credentials, resolve user details during analysis, and enhance the details displayed with the incident.
Configuring user directory server settings
You set up your user directory server settings as part of your initial Websense Data Security configuration:
1.
2.
Select Settings > General > System.
3.
Select User Directories.
4.
Click New in the toolbar.
5.
Click Enabled to enable this server as your user directory server.
Select Follow referrals if you want Websense Data Security to follow server referrals should they exist. A server referral is when one server refers to another for programs or data.
Click Test Attributes to retrieve user information on the email address you supplied. Mouse over the information icon to check the user information imported.
6.
Click OK to save your changes.
The server is listed on the User Directories page.
Importing user data
By default, Websense Data Security imports data from user directory servers daily at 3.00am. You can change the import time as follows:
1.
In TRITON - Data Security, select Settings > General > System.
2.
Select User Directories.
3.
Click the Import daily at link.
4.
Once you have set up a user directory server, you can start an import at any time in addition to the daily schedule:
1.
2.
Click Yes to continue.
To view user directory entries once they have been imported, go to Main > Policy Management > Resources and select User Directory Entries.
Rearranging servers
Once you have set up a user directory server in TRITON - Data Security, the server is listed on the User Directories page. If you have set up and enabled more than one server, users are imported from user directories in the order listed on this page. If a user is in more than one directory, the first directory record takes precedence.
To rearrange your servers in the order you want them:
1.
Click Rearrange Servers.
2.
3.
Click OK when done.
