Novell NDS Database
• Context List—The full context list with each context specified in canonical,
typeless form; that is, remove the
o= and ou= and separate each part of the
context using a period (.). You can enter more than one context list. If you do,
separate them with a comma. For example, if your Organization is
Corporation, your Organization Name is Chicago, and you want to enter two
Context names, Marketing and Engineering, you would type:
Engineering.Chicago.Corporation, Marketing.Chicago.Corporation
You do not need to add users in the Context List box.
Note Users can provide a portion of their context when they login. For
more information, see User Contexts, page 11-35.
Configuring a Novell NDS External User Database
You can allow users to enter their own context as part of the login process.
Creating an Novell NDS database configuration is a process that provides
Cisco Secure ACS information that enables it to pass authentication requests to an
NDS database. This information reflects the way you have implemented your
NDS database and does not dictate how your NDS database is configured or
functions. For information about your NDS database, refer to your Novell NDS
documentation.
Before You Begin
The Novell Requestor Software for Novell NDS must be installed on the same
Windows NT server as Cisco Secure ACS. If the Novell Requestor Software for
Novell NDS is not on the same Windows NT server as Cisco Secure ACS, you
cannot complete this procedure.
To configure Novell NDS authentication, follow these steps:
Step 1 See your Novell NetWare administrator to get the names and other information on
the Tree, Container, and Context.
Step 2 In the navigation bar, click External User Databases.
Step 3 Click Database Configuration.
Result: Cisco Secure ACS lists all possible external user database types.
