Delegation over mail enabled users and contacts only

Bob — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 12:49:21 +0000

The ActiveRoles product comes with Roles (a.k.a. Access Templates) that use the native permission model to provide delegation. To perform delegation you need to identify the Role, the Trustee (in this case an OU Admin) and the scope. The first two are simple as you just select an Access Template and a user or group while the third can also be simple if you understand how to define custom scopes using Managed Units. In this video I will show you how to delegate managing email address over mail enabled users and contacts, but not mailbox enabled users or groups.

Setting msExchRequireAuthToSendTo during group creation

I was working with a customer who wanted the option to set the msExchRequireAuthToSendTo attribute during mail enabled group creation. The challenge is that the native Exchange console always defaults this value to TRUE making it easy for the user to forget to un-check the value after the creation of the group. Using ActiveRoles Server I created a very-very simply way to accomplish this.

As. Sr. Product Manger for ActiveRoles I was asked and will be giving a live web demo on Quest’s Active Directory provisioning and automating solution (ActiveRoles) this Wednesday, September 23rd at 11:00 AM EST. I would like to invite everyone to join me for this live web demo where you will see how ActiveRoles Server can help your organization in the following four areas:

Automate user access throughout a user’s identity life-cycle (provisioning, re-provisioning, de-provisioning)
Extend cross-platform provisioning with ActiveRoles Quick Connect
Enforce and document a least-privilege model such that users get the right access – nothing more, nothing less
Empower Application/Business/Data owners to control access to their sensitive apps/data/resources and enforce periodic review and certification
Reduce the time spent gathering and consolidating audit data by having push-button reporting

Demo: ActiveRoles SharePoint Provisioning

ActiveRoles Quick Connect for Base Systems: SharePoint Integration provides real-time Provisioning & Deprovisioning of SharePoint access. This integration extends the SharePoint access provision already in ActiveRoles Server. Today, ActiveRoles Server can automatically provision/deprovision in real-time SharePoint access if AD groups are used to grant access to SharePoint resources. With Quick Connect for Base Systems: SharePoint Integration, ActiveRoles can in real-time provision/deprovision SharePoint access, to SharePoint sites where direct user membership was used instead of the traditional best practice of nesting Active Directory groups.
