Import users with Web Portal Manager

We can import a user that exists in a user registry and make that user an ISAM user.

Steps

  1. Use Web Portal Manager to log in to the domain as a domain administrator.

  2. Click User → Import User.

  3. Type a User Id (for example maryj).

  4. Click Group Membership to search for groups in which the user can be a member.

  5. Type a Registry UID. The registry UID specifies the location in the user registry to be imported. For example: cn=maryj,o=ibm,c=us,dc=mkt. Lotus Notes® users require the full path name for the user being imported. For example: Mary Jones/IBM/US

  6. Select the Account Valid check box to indicate the new user can participate in the domain. If this option is not selected, the new user account is not valid and the user cannot log in.

  7. Select the GSO User check box to indicate the user can use the global sign-on (single sign-on) for ISAM.

  8. Select the Password Valid check box to force a password change the next time the user logs in to the domain. If this option is not selected, the user is informed the password expired.

  9. Click Create.

A message occurs if the user ID is created.
