1.4. Creating User Accounts Through Active Directory
Configuring Active Directory synchronization
-
After installing and licensing MetaDefender Vault, go to Settings → Active Directories
-
In order to add users through Active Directory, just go through the AD Settings page and complete with valid data. Information regarding each field can be found here: Active Directories Settings
Note on licensing
Without a valid license, an administrator can still configure the product as desired. Only file upload functionality requires a valid license. In order to get complete functionality, ensure expected behavior, and stay compliant with OPSWAT terms and conditions, you must have a license that has not expired and allowed for a bigger number of users in your Active Directory. For example, if you have 999 users in your Active Directory, you must have a minimum 1000 users license otherwise no user will be able to use core functionality such as upload/download files to/from the user interface or API.
