Chapter 2 Getting Started With User Management 37

Planning Strategies for User Management

Here are some planning activities to undertake before you start to implement user

management.

Analyzing Your Environment

Your user management settings need to complement your particular environment,

including:

• The size and distribution of your network

• The number of users who will access your network

• The kind of computers users will use (Mac OS 9, Mac OS X, or Windows)

• How users will use client computers

• Which computers are mobile computers

• Which users should have administrator privileges

• Which users should have access to particular computers

• What services and resources users need (such as mail or access to data storage)

• How you might divide users into groups (for example, by class topic or job function)

• How you want to group sets of computers (such as all computers in a public lab)

Identifying Directory Services Requirements

Identify the directories in which you’ll store user and group accounts and computer

lists.

• If you have an Active Directory or LDAP server already set up, you might be able to

take advantage of existing account records. See the Open Directory administration

guide for details about accessing existing directories.

• If you have an earlier version of an Apple server, you might be able to migrate

existing records. See the migration guide for available options.

• Set up Open Directory master and replicas to host LDAP directories to store other

user accounts, group accounts, and computer lists on your network. See the Open

Directory administration guide for instructions and for complete information about

password handling options.

Note: If all the domains have not been finalized when you’re ready to start adding user

and group accounts, simply add the accounts to any directory domain that already

exists on your server. (You can use the local directory domain—it’s always available.)

You can move users and groups to another directory domain later by using your

server’s export and import capabilities, described in the Appendix A, “Importing and

Exporting Account Information.”
