Configuring User Sync in the Command Line To disable user sync, set nsds7NewWinUserSyncEnabled: off Then, you will add the ntUser objectclass to each IPA user you want to sync, and at the same time add the attribute ntUserDomainID: username (corresponds to the AD user samAccountName attribute). This will "link" the IPA user entry to the corresponding AD user entry. You mention password sync and user sync - I'm not sure if you mean them separately, or if you are implying that they have to be used together - they do not. You should be able to install PassSync on your domain controllers _without configuring a winsync agreement in IPA_. PassSync should then just ignore password changes for users that it cannot find in IPA. <o:p></o:p> Thanks,<o:p></o:p> -Mark<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <div> <o:p></o:p> ________________________________________________________________<o:p></o:p> Mark Tovey - UNIX Engineer | Service Strategy & Design<o:p></o:p> <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.go2uti.com/">UTi</a> | 400 SW Sixth Ave, Suite 1100 | Portland | Oregon | 97204 | USA<o:p></o:p> <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:MTovey@go2uti.com">MTovey@go2uti.com</a> | O / C +1 503 953-1389 | Skype: mark.tovey2<o:p></o:p> </div> <o:p></o:p> <div> <div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in"> From: Rich Megginson [<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:rmeggins@redhat.com">mailto:rmeggins@redhat.com</a>] Sent: Tuesday, July 16, 2013 1:00 PM To: Tovey, Mark Cc: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:Freeipa-users@redhat.com">Freeipa-users@redhat.com</a> Subject: Re: [Freeipa-users] Limit password synchronization from Active Directory<o:p></o:p> </div> </div> <o:p></o:p> <div> On 07/16/2013 01:48 PM, Tovey, Mark wrote:<o:p></o:p> </div> <blockquote style="margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt"> <o:p></o:p> Is there a way to limit what user accounts are synchronized from Active Directory?
