AD Functionality

Post by Maxwellb99 »

Hello,
AD.PNG
Thoughts? Also, it only shows the first couple hundred users, which in our case gets us to the B's is there a way to display all the members in our OU or a "next" button to see the rest of them?

LDAP / Active Directory Integration: 1.0.12
Nagios XI: 5.4.13

Thanks,
Maxwell Ramirez

Try increasing the values as described in https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/n ... e-611.html and seeing a limited number of returned users is usually a restriction on the AD side:

I would also point out that the directory browser isn't technically needed to add a user from AD or LDAP. If you know the users information, you can simply add them under Admin > Users > Manage Users, select the appropriate auth type from the drop down, fill in the required info, and be good to go.

Hello,

thanks for the response. I'd like to ask a tangentially related follow-up question. After posting a reply, feel free to close this thread.
Thank you for your support.

Has there been any movement on this feature request: Adding LDAP/AD users by group?

https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewto ... 16&t=46596

Management wants this for audit/tracking purposes but if we need to add individual users they're willing to scrap the functionality requirement.

Best Wishes,
Maxwell Ramirez

There hasn't and doesn't look like there well be as was noted regarding group imports:
A while back, there was a request to have LDAP groups as an import option/auth into XI rather than a single user.

Unfortunately, this was turned down and is not in the works.
For the A-Z feature request, this is still being looked into but not ETA is available.
