UNIX ETC and NIS Connector

The UNIX Connector provides a single point for all user administration by letting you do the following:

Register endpoints, explore them for objects to manage, and correlate their accounts with global users
Create and manage UNIX accounts using UNIX‑specific account templates
Change account passwords and account activations in one place
Synchronize global users with their roles or synchronize global users' accounts with their account templates
Assign a UNIX policy to each of your UNIX endpoints
Use the default Endpoint Type policy to create accounts with the minimum level of security needed to access a UNIX directory
Create and manage UNIX groups
Generate and print reports about UNIX accounts and groups

Note: This connector manages UNIX NIS master servers only. Do not use this connector to mange NIS slave servers or clients.
