Logging in to OME-Modular as Active Directory or LDAP user
To log in to OME–Modular as an Active Directory (AD) or LDAP user:
1. Add directory service
2. Import directory group
3. Log in with directory user credentials
To add directory service:
1. From the menu bar in the OME–Modular web interface, click Application Settings > Users > Directory Services > Add.
The Connect to Directory Service window is displayed.
2. Select AD or LDAP, and enter the appropriate information.
3. If the directory type is AD, and the Domain Controller Lookup type is DNS, enter the domain name and group domain.
In the group domain, you can look for directory groups. You can include the directory groups as application users. You can
also use the group domain for authenticating users during login. The format of the group domain can be—
<Domain>.<Sub-Domain> or ou=org, dc=example, dc=com.
Use the "DNS" Domain Controller Lookup type, if you do not know the details of the domain controllers from which you
want to import the group or groups. To use the DNS domain controller, ensure that you have done the following tasks on the
Network Settings page:
● Selected the Register with DNS check box
● Provided the Primary and Alternate DNS server addresses
After you enter the domain name, OME-Modular searches the SRV records on the DNS servers to fetch the details of the
domain controllers in that domain.
If you know the IP address or FQDN of the domain controllers, you can use the "Manual" Domain Controller Lookup type.
The Test Connection feature is only applicable to the "DNS" domain controller type.

The selected group is displayed under Groups to be Imported.
