Management of Alternate Names on LND Accounts

The LND connector supports the management of alternate names on your LND accounts. The account ID must be certified by a certifier ID that has at least one alternate name configured for it in order to add alternate name information. To include the management of alternate languages on certifier files, the administrator must perform the following steps prior to using this new functionality:

  1. Use the Domino Administrator (see Domino Administrator Help for more information) to configure the certifier ID with alternate names.
  2. Update the existing Certifier documents for each certifier in the Certifiers database by using the Domino Administrator client to delete the existing certifier ID file from the Certifier document and then attach the updated certifier ID. You must also supply a password for the password field.

    Note: This step is necessary any time the alternate name information is changed in a certifier ID file.

  3. Update each Organization or Organizational Unit certifier that contains alternate information within the Provisioning database. The multi-valued attribute eTLNDOrgCertAltLanguageList for Organization and Organizational Unit objects must contain all the languages supported by the certifier.

    You can Add, Delete, Query, and Modify the language list from the Provisioning Manager by using the LND Organization and Organization Unit management dialogs. The language codes are automatically expanded to language names when added. However, you can still use etautil to add or update the list. See Sample etautil Commands for an example.

Only those valid languages added to the Organization or Organizational Unit objects in the Provisioning database are displayed as choices when creating accounts using that Org or OU. For a list of languages and associated codes, see Alternative Languages Support for both Organization and Organizational Unit Certifiers.
