Adding Users to TDV from an LDAP Domain
Typically, LDAP users are added to TDV indirectly by addition of their groups, with group rights and privileges appropriate to their role. To add users to an LDAP domain, the TDV administrator must first add the LDAP domain to TDV Server, and then add groups to that domain.
When adding a user from an LDAP domain, three conditions must be satisfied:
The user’s LDAP name and password are successfully authenticated with the LDAP server.
If LDAP authentication fails or the LDAP user does not belong to any local group definition, the user is not added to the LDAP domain in TDV Server and is not allowed to log into Studio.
The LDAP user is already a member of a group defined by the LDAP server.
That pre-existing LDAP group is defined for use by TDV.
This user is added to each local LDAP group as a member where appropriate. The domain sync process adds or removes LDAP users to or from the appropriate local LDAP groups.
To add a user to an LDAP domain
1. Make sure the user belongs to a group in the LDAP server, see Adding a Group to an LDAP Domain.
2. Start Studio.
3. In the login screen, log in with a valid LDAP user name, password, and domain.
