Object Properties Files

The user.properties file defines the LDAP attributes in user profiles. This file contains identifiers mapped to LDAP attribute names. For example, the attribute for address appears as follows:

ADDRESS_ID=postaladdress

To modify an attribute name, change the value that is paired with the identifier. Do not modify the identifier.

The user.properties file is stored in the tables directory where the default properties files are installed—for example:

C:\Program Files\Netegrity\<Web Agent Installation>\properties\default\tables

Note: The tables directory contains org.properties, group.properties, and manage dorg.properties, which are used by DMS2. Modifying these files does not affect Registration Services.

Identifier

Description

OBJECTCLASS

Identifies the object classes for organizations. The object class defines the types of attributes that an entry can contain. The attribute can be required or optional.

Each LDAP directory includes a set of pre-defined object classes. See the documentation for your directory server for information on the default object classes.

USER_ID

Identifies the LDAP attribute where Registration Services stores the user ID.

 
  • PASSWORD_ID
  • NEW_PASSWORD_ID
  • CONFIRM_PASSWORD_ID
  • CONFIRM_NEW_PASSWORD_ID

Identifies the LDAP attribute where a user’s password is stored.

Note: The specified attribute name should match the Password Attribute that you configured when you set up the connection to your LDAP directory in the SiteMinder Policy Server.

FIRSTNAME_ID

Identifies the LDAP attribute that stores a user’s first name.

LASTNAME_ID

Identifies the LDAP attribute that stores a user’s last name.

COMMONNAME_ID

Identifies the LDAP attribute that stores a user’s common name.

ATTR_PEOPLE_CONTAINER_ID

Identifies the attribute name for the container where user profiles are stored—for example, ou. The attribute name is paired with the value of DEFAULT_NAME_USER_ID to form the DN of the user container.

DEFAULT_NAME_PEOPLE_ID

Specifies the name of the user container—for example, People. The container name is paired with the value of ATTR_PEOPLE_CONTAINER_ID to form the DN of the user container.

OBJECTCLASS_PEOPLE_CONTAINER_ID
