Setting Default Naming Context in ADAM

The naming context container of ADAM provides you information about objects deleted from LDAP server. You can specify a default naming context. The following information provides information on how to set default naming context in ADAM.

By default, an ADAM instance does not provide a default naming context. You can, however, configure ADAM to provide a default naming context as follows:

1.

In ADAM ADSI Edit, expand the My Connection tree as follows:

a.

Expand the CN=NTDS Settings, CN=ServerName$InstanceName, CN=Servers, CN=Default-First-Site-Name, CN=Sites, CN=Configuration, CN={GUID} item.

2.

Right-click on the CN=NTDS Settings node.

The CN=NTDS Settings Properties dialog appears.

3.

Select the msDS-DefaultNamingContext attribute.

4.

Click the Edit button.

5.

Type the value with the base DN to be used in the naming context, for example: o=tibco,c=us

6.

Click the OK button twice.

7.

Restart your ADAM instance so the new default naming context will take effect.
