Renaming AD group used in external identity store

Hello,
There is a need to rename some of the Active Directory groups mapped to an external identity store on our ACS 5.4 server.  Has anybody ever done this?  Does the ACS server just magically pick up on the renamed group or do we need to manually remove the old group name and readd the new group name to the identity store?  If so, does that mean we need to modify all the rules associated with that group?
Thanks, just trying to figure out how much work this is going to be.  

Hi,
AFAIK you would have to remove the policies associated with those group, remove the old groups, add the new groups and create the policies.
You can however just create the new groups in the Active Directory, add the groups in the ACS and using the AD group 'OR' condition just add the new groups in the Policy.
e,g if your old group name is "Helpdesk" and you would like to change it to "Helpdesk users"; you can create the new group in the AD, add the group in the ACS and in the policy just select if the user is part of either "Helpdesk" or "Helpdesk users" --> apply the policy.
This way you would be able to save some of your time.

  • AD -vs- LDAP for external Identity store in ACS

    Is there a difference in using AD versus LDAP in a Windows environment for an Identity Store? We are in the process of setting up the ACS 90 eval and I noticed you can setup either AD or LDAP or both as an external identity store. Are there advantages or disadvantages for one over the other?

    Suggest to go to "Monitoring & Reports > Reports > Catalog > AAA Protocol"
    Select TACACS Authorization and see the authorizations that occured today
    If you click on the details icon you should be able to see the actual LDAP groups that were retrieved in processing the request and so can see that the format/contents matches that which you entered

  • Is LDAP or AD as a external identity store recommended in ISE implementation for machine authentication

    Hi Experts,
    I have question about External identity store integration in ISE . I had chance to go through the cisco doc for ISE configuration especially for external identity store .
    there are two ways to configure external identity store.
    1) AD
    2) LDAP
    Which one is actually recommended ? technically which one would be convinient to configure to set-up machine authentication. do we have any limitation in terms of functionality in either of one ?

    Hi Leo,
    its not duplicate post , I have created one more post where you have linked that is for client policy enforcement . I want to understand how certificates will be pushed to client.
    This post is to understand the LDAP & AD intergration with ISE .
    I have requirement where client is asking to intergrate machine database using LDAP.
    I am quite new for LDAP intergration that is the reason I have created this discussion.

  • Problem with using OID as Identity Store for OAM

    I have oam11.1.1.5.1 and oid 11.1.1.5.
    I switched the embedded ldap to OID as the default as well as the system identity store followed the doc http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e15478/datasrc.htm#BHCJEDJA
    In the oid I have created the group Administrators and added the users to: weblogic, weblogicoi, oamtester and more.
    Only weblogic can sign into the oam console by one login :
    http://<host>:/oamconsole , redirected to the page having oam port 14100 with the login wizard, get in with weblogic account credential.
    and for the others have to have two logins:
    http://<host>:/oamconsole , redirected to the page having oam port 14100 with the login wizard,
    After keyed in the user credential, got redirected to back to the page having port 7001 with the login wizard, keyed in the user credential again and got in.
    All the passords are using in the oid's, that confirms the oid is the oam's identity store.
    Seems weblogic is the seed account. Could I miss something for granting privs for the others? if so what did I miss? Do I have to create an authentication provider with the oid(ldap) in WLS' security domain? If so, is that a mandatory?

    Hi,
    Did you set the Authentication Module to use your newly created User Identity Store? Or is it still pointing to your default UserIdentityStore1. If not, you will have to modify these configuration in your Access Manager Settings. Also, make sure that your new User Identity store is set as default store as well as system store.

  • ISE - External Identity Source (AD Groups)

    Assume there are no groups populated in this bucket (Identity Management-> Active Directory -> Groups) Does ISE just check if the user is in AD and allows them on?  I have clients authenticating that arent part of the single group I added to this bucket.
    This is why I ask ..

    Yes, you understood it right. Let me add little more explanation.
    Group reterieval for authorization
    You can use the AD group data in the  authorization and group mapping tables and introduce special conditions  to match them against the retrieved groups.

    Once you've selected the groups under
    Users and Identity Stores >
    External Identity Stores >
    Active Directory > directory groups
    The same groups will start appearing under below listed screen shot. From there you will see 2 options any / all like or / and condition. Based on user membership the authorization role can be assisgned.

  • How to configure SOA Suite 11g Worklist with LDAP Identity Store

    Hi
    Im trying to configure the worklistapp to use an ldap identity store (SOA Suite 11g)

    I am having exactly the same issue. Once I configure jps-config.xml file to use my custom authenticator and login into the worklist app, the following gets thrown. I was wondering if you need map some roles to the existing users in the Custom Authenticator.

  • AuthZ Policy using specific Endpoint Identity Groups

    I am trying to create an AuthZ policy that will identify if a device is in specific Endpoint Identity Group.  See policy below.
    I used the IdentityGroup:Name attribute Equals the Identity Group MAB_Devices.  Please note that there are NO Identity groups listed in the dropdown options, so I typed in the name.   Alas, the rule is not working.   Anyone have advise on what I am doing wrong?  Thx

    Bransomar, your screenshot is an Authentication policy rule but you should do it in Authorization policy. Authentication policy sorts out requests by request method and origin and assigns an identity store to each.

  • Can I use an external hard drive to download and store my iTunes library?

    Can I use an external hard drive to download and store my iTunes library?

    Yes - in most cases you can just copy your entire library (by default C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes) to your external drive, with the result being a iTunes folder in the root of that drive with a structure like this:
    Then hold down SHIFT when you start iTunes, and when you see this prompt:
    click on Choose Library..., navigate to the iTunes folder on your external drive, and click Open.  See turingtest2's user tip on Make a split library portable for more information, including steps you may need to take to align your library structure before moving it to an external drive - this applies if you currently have some/all of the media in your library stored outside the standard iTunes Media folders.

    Are you wanting each machine to view those photos thru iPhoto? There are several ways of sharing and others can fill you in more on the conventional ways. Some are:

    Let me suggest another possible way.
    That is use iPhoto in it's alias mode on each of the machines. Then store your source files on the external HD and let each machine create an alias based library of those files. Each machine will have an independent, unique library whose edits, slideshows, etc will be unique to that machine. Those machines can only delete the alias files from their library, they can't touch the original source files. The only caveat is if the external HD is not mounted the library will only be able to be used in a limited way, viewing thumbnails, adding comments and keywords only. You can put a few photos in a folder on the external HD and create a test alias library to experiment.
    I've created some Tutorials to assist users in converting over to an alias based system.

  • Assign user external dir to group using MaxL

    Hi
    I have my essbase security sync with Shared services.
    Now i want to assign user to groups using Maxl
    Groups exist as Essbase native Groups
    Users exist as corporate directory and are NOT native users
    Now when i try to execute the following statement i get error saying 'user does not exist'
    Alter user 'username@corporatedir' add to group 'nativegroup';
    Is it not possible to assign users from external directory to native groups using Maxl?

    Not specifed your version.
    For 9.3.1 refer to page 103 for details. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/hyp_security_guide.pdf
    The file looks like
    #group_children          
    id,user_id,user_provider
    myNativeGroup,User1,myProvider
    myNativeGroup,USer2,myProvider
    myNativeGroup,nativeUser3,Native Directory
    For better understanding, add one external user to a native group manually in shared services and then export using the utility.
    Then the exported file format can be used for your import.
    Hope it helps.

  • I use an external HD (WD My Passport) to store my iPhoto photos.  When I backed these up on another EHD (WD My Passport Ultra), thumbnails, and a lot of the photos did not copy (show "!").  Now 1st HD says its on a locked volume?  What happened?

    I use an external HD (WD My Passport) to store my iPhoto photos.  When I copied these up on another EHD (WD My Passport Ultra): thumbnails, and a lot of the photos did not copy (show "!").  Now 1st HD says its on a locked volume?  Why?
    Right before the coping finished (started with a 40 hour copy time (I know it's estimated), and with about 30 minutes left, a window popped up and said there was a name conflict between the two HD.  Then it  wrapped things up in a minute or so.  We had formatted the new EHD for Mac.  What happened?

    Oh my! Obviously, I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know that my goal was to do both---backup AND free some space. My iMAc is old (2006) and I upgraded it a year or so ago to Snow Leopard. I didn't think I had the capability of backing up without an external drive, but  maybe I do since I upgraded. Do I?
    But I bought this My Book mostly for freeing space because I like to make cards in Photoshop and I'm forever running out of space when I get too many layers (don't really know what I'm doing there, either).
    Is there some way that I can rectify my mistakes and start all over?
    Thank you so much for  beng so prompt with your reply and patient with mine. I tried for so long to see the dialog box with the library listings. When I launched iPhoto, even with holding down the Option key, it kept immediately launching into the full screen. Finally, after an hour of doing it over and over again, it worked when I held the key down for 5 minutes. Then when I was typing my reply, I kept getting a message to "Request Time Out." Didn't know how to do that, so kept hitting the OK button and kept typing for another half minute. Finally, when ready to send, Safari couldn't do it. "Try again" exasperated me until I realized I would have to begin again and use Firefox. When I got there and ready to type, I got the message  that my message had been retrienved and did I want to use it?!!
    So your kindness is very much appreciated.

    I am thinking of buying a "new" iPad but I have a very large iPhoto library which I would like to keep intact and be able to view on my new iPad.  Is there a way to use a external storage device to store the iPhoto library and view it on the iPad?

    You can't use an external hard drive like you would with a computer.
    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
    When you first connect the USB flash drive, you will only see thumbnails of the pics on the iPad; you have to import the pic file to see the full size. With your large library of pics, you will have to do this repeateably and then delete pics so you don't exceed your memory capacity.

  • Guest Portal Identity Store Sequence

    As part of my ISE deployment I have configured the last rule in the Autentication Rules to continue if a user is found in Identity Store Sequence BYOD-USERS.
    This Identity store specifies that Active Directory and Guest users should be searched, when a user logins into the Guest Sponsor Portal.
    However at the moment Guest users are working fine and are permitted onto the Guest network once they have authenticated, as part of a corresponding Authroization profile however with Active Directory I only want a small subsection of users who can continue once entering in their details. If the user isn't in that particular AD security group they can't progress further from the guest portal.
    So my question is, is the identity store sequence where I have requested that active directory be searched that I can filter which user group can potentially login. I understand that under the Active Directory Identity store I can specifiy groups which I have done, but my question is can I restrict which groups are search in the identity store sequence for active directory.
    Thank you for your help in advance guys.

    Tony,
    They way to accomplish this (I think) would be to create another Identity Source.  Go to Administration > Identity Management > External Identity Sources.  From there, click LDAP from the menu on the left.
    Click the +Add button to add an identity source.  Bind this connection to the AD server you are currently using.  Choose the groups you want to be in the Authorization Profile and then, Choose the Attributes for the Identity Source:
    From here, you MUST use the full LDAP object name for the group to get the list of attributes:
    Click Submit, then OK (the dialog might just contain the number 1).  Use this new Identity Source in your Identity Source Sequence.
    Please Rate Helpful posts and mark this question as answered if, in fact, this does answer your question.  Otherwise, feel free to post follow-up questions.
