Nagios Support Forum

Hi, Support:

We have used the Admin->LDAP/AD Integration page to connect to our corporate AD servers. That works great.

Now we are using the Admin->Manage Users->LDAP/Active Directory Import Users page to set up user accounts. What we see is that we can import only individual users. For example, when we access our AD "Security Group" on the Import Users page, we see a listing of individual users and can import them, so that's nice. What would be great would be a way to import by group membership--as opposed to individual users.

Users come and go, and we update our AD groups accordingly. If Nagios XI could auto-update a group membership based on the AD membership changes, then we wouldn't have to update both AD and Nagios--we could simply update the AD group membership, and Nagios XI would pick up the changes.

Is such a feature available? (It could be hard to implement.)

Thanks,

Not currently, but I have submitted a feature request for it and the developers have said they want to get it implemented, I am unable to give an ETA though.

Hi, Ssax:

Thanks for your reply. I appreciate the response from the developers. Please keep us posted as new developments occur. In the meantime, you can close this post.

Ok, closing now.

We don't have an automated solution for updating customers when a feature is implemented, please keep an eye on the release changelogs for any new features that have been added.

Thank you
