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 manage NIS slave servers or clients.
