To remove a mapping for an attribute, select the attribute in the Record Types and Attributes
List. Then click the item that you want to remove from the “Map to __ items in list” and click
the Delete button below “Map to __ items in list.”
10 Click Write to Server if you want to store the mappings on the LDAPv3 server so that it can
supply them automatically to its clients.
You must enter a search base to store the mappings, a distinguished name of an
administrator (for example, cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com) and a password.
The LDAPv3 server supplies its mappings to clients that are configured to use an automatic
search policy. For instructions on configuring the client search policy, see “Setting Up Search
Policies” on page 94.
The LDAPv3 server also supplies its mappings to clients that have been configured manually
to get mappings from the server. For instructions on configuring client access to the server,
see “Creating an LDAPv3 Configuration” on page 98 through “Changing an LDAPv3
Configuration’s Connection Settings” on page 100.
Populating LDAPv3 Domains With Data for Mac OS X
After configuring LDAPv3 directory domains and setting up their data mapping, you can
populate them with records and data for Mac OS X. For directory domains that allow remote
administration (read/write access), use the Workgroup Manager application and the Server
Settings application as follows:
m Identify share points and shared domains that you want to mount automatically in a
user’s /Network directory (the Network globe in Finder windows). Use the Sharing
module of Workgroup Manager. For instructions, see Chapter 4, “Sharing.”
m Define users records and group records and configure their settings. Use the Accounts
module of Workgroup Manager. For instructions, see Chapter 3, “Users and Groups.”
m Define lists of computers that have the same preference settings and are available to the
same users and groups. Use the Computers module of Workgroup Manager. For
instructions, see Chapter 6, “Client Management: Mac OS X.”
m Create records for shared printers that you want to appear in the Directory Services
printer list in Print Center. Use the Print module of Server Settings. For instructions, see
Chapter 7, “Print Service.”
Note: To add records and data to a read-only LDAPv3 domain, you must use tools on the
server that hosts the LDAPv3 domain.
