eDirectory Agent initialization parameters

After configuring eDirectory Agent behavior in TRITON - Web Security, you can customize the behavior of a specific eDirectory Agent instance in wsedir.ini, the agent's initialization file. This file resides in the Websense bin directory (C:\Program Files or Program Files (x86)\Websense\Web Security\bin\ or /opt/Websense/bin/, by default).


Default	0
Options	0, 1, 2, 3
Required	No
Synopsis	Specifies the level of log file detail provided for debugging purposes, from none (0) to high (3). Any value outside the range of 0-3 is interpreted as 0.


Default	Off
Options	On, Off
Required	No
Synopsis	Enables or disables eDirectory Agent's built-in diagnostic (logging and debugging) capabilities. This can be a valuable tool for troubleshooting user identification problems, and determining whether eDirectory Agent is identifying Novell eDirectory users correctly.


Default	None
Options	Any valid distinguished user name
Required	Yes
Synopsis	The distinguished name of a user with administrative rights in Novell eDirectory server. Novell eDirectory requires an authenticated name to issue LDAP requests. Should match the account specified on the Settings > Directory Services page in TRITON - Web Security.


Default	N/A
Options	Any string of characters valid for your operating system
Required	No
Synopsis	If you have enabled DebugMode, specify a name for the text file where eDirectory Agent sends diagnostic (log) output.


Default	N/A
Options	Any string of characters
Required	Yes
Synopsis	The password for the Novell eDirectory server administrator account specified via DN*. Should match the password specified on the Settings > Directory Services page in TRITON - Web Security.


Default	1 [NCP]
Options	0, 1, 2, 3 [LDAP, NCP, LDAP + full queries, NCP + full queries]
Required	Yes
Synopsis	Determines whether eDirectory Agent uses NCP or LDAP to communicate with Novell eDirectory servers. Also determines whether eDirectory Agent performs a full query each time it polls the Novell eDirectory server. Enabling full queries is not recommended in larger networks, because the length of time required to return query results depends on the number of logged on users. The more logged-on users there are, the higher the performance impact.


Default	N/A
Options	Any string of characters
Required	Yes
Synopsis	The DN (distinguished name) of your Novell eDirectory root context. This value should match the root context specified on the Settings > Directory Services page in TRITON - Web Security.


Default	N/A
Options	A valid IP address or host name
Required	Yes
Synopsis	Specify the identity of any machine running Novell eDirectory so that eDirectory Agent can query the directory service. If you are running multiple instances of Novell eDirectory, place each server entry on a separate line.
