Syncing eDir Vibe User group Issue

iliadmin

Hello,

I have setup a new Vibe server.  I have a group of users in eDirectory assigned to a group called VibeUsers.

When I go in to Vibe admin to LDAP and setup the LDAP, I also add a filter to just pull in the members of the VibeUsers group.  The filter is this:

(groupMemberiship=cn=VibeUsers,o=oes

When I do a Previous sync, I see that it is synced BUT it says it is syncing 4 groups, not one.  The "groups" are actually each user in the VibeUsers group.

I can't figure out what is wrong to be causing this except that maybe it is because we do not have any OUs in our tree.  The directory tree is very small, basically the tree name and then the O,  then the objects. We have no OUs setup in the tree as it was deemed not needed years ago when we were on Netware.  We only have about 35 users in our environment.

Any ideas?

TIA

Val

    Assuming you are trying to sync only the users who are members of that group, try doing this.
    In the user sync use this filter

    (&(|(objectClass=Person)(objectClass=orgPerson)(objectClass=inetOrgPerson))(groupMembership=cn=VibeUsers,o=oes))

    the Group tab is to import groups themselves. You can leave that as the default filter assuming you want to make all groups avail for management. (|(objectClass=group)(objectClass=groupOfNames)(objectClass=groupOfUniqueNames))

    Thanks for the reply!

     

    I just tried that recommended filter you provided, and I made sure to save the LDAP before testing.   I did a preview sync and it still brings in 4 groups, same as before, each user is a group.

     

    Bummer 

     

    Any other ideas?

    UGH!  Just realized I didn't take out the group entry from the group tab. DAH!  Did that and now, of course, your filter works!  yay!

    Great help, many thanks!
