Custom Directory Overview

The Policy Server User Interface allows you to create custom user directory connections by creating shared libraries using the SiteMinder Directory API (available separately with the Software Development Kit; if installed, see the Developer’s Guide for C for more information). Custom connections allow the Policy Server to interact with legacy directories. Once you create a directory connection using the SiteMinder APIs, you can configure a custom namespace in the User Directory Dialog.
