DC 5.8 Setup Inside Digizuite™ DAM Center
Mathias Mattson (MHM)
Open Digizuite™ Dam Center and navigate to System tools -> Digizuite™ Configuration, and locate ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER
DZC Constant | Type | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
USE_ACTIVE_DIRECTORY | int | 0 / 1 | Is AD Auth active |
ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER | dom\usr@pwd | Credentials for the user who can talk to Active Directory | |
ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER_<MYDOMAIN> | dom\use@pwd | Credentials for the user who can talk to Active Directory |
To set up communication from the Digizuite™ DAM Center to the existing database, connection parameters (for the query user) must be specified.
Required parameters needed for ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER are:
- Username
- Password
- Domain server
Example: ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER = domain \ user @ pwd
@ can be escaped by \
Example:
Say you want to create the following user:
| Parameter | value |
|---|---|
| username | dom\usr |
| password | 1P@ssword |
| domain | dom |
| ID of the template user used | 113 |
You would have to type it in as follows:
dom\usr@1P\@ssword@dom@113
Optional feature – template user to specify rights
A template user ID suffix can be added to the constant. When set, all new users validated and created in the Digizuite™ DAM Center (through the AD) will be placed in the same group(s) as the specified template user.
Example: ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER@<TEMPLATE_MEMBER_ID > = domain \ user @ pwd@ template_member_id
Optional feature – multiple domain support
In case the Digizuite™ DAM Center should be able handle more than one domain, a <DOMAIN> suffix can be added to ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER.
Example: ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER@<DOMAIN> = domain \ user @ pwd@domain.com
This specifies the user to a query only against to the specified domain. Additional constants may be added to allow for multiple domain support.
Note: When using multiple domains, extended trust/bindings must be configured for the IIS server since the server can only be member of one domain.
Note: The domain must always be in uppercase letters in the Digizuite™ DAM Center constants.
Hint: Optional features can be combined and should be entered as:
ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER@<DOMAIN>@<TEMPLATE_MEMBER_ID >
domain \ user @ pwd@domain.com@template_user_id
Set USE_ACTIVE_DIRECTORY to 1 (this enables use of AD-validation feature for the Digizuite™ DAM Center).
Recycle application pool for Digizuite™ DAM Center from IIS server.
