Omcong Preferences Dirservice
Use the omcong preferences dirservice command to congure the Active Directory service. The <productname>oem.ini le is modied
to reect these changes. If the "adproductname" is not present in the <productname>oem.ini le then a <computername>-
<computername> refers to the name of the computer running Server Administrator and <productname> refers to the name of the
product dened in omprv32.ini. For Server Administrator, the product name is "omsa".
Therefore, for a computer named "myOmsa" running Server Administrator, the default name is "myOmsa–omsa". This is the name of Server
Administrator dened in Active Directory by using the snap-in tool. This name must match the name for the application object in Active
Directory in order to nd user privileges.
NOTE: This command is applicable only on systems running the Windows operating system.
