Integrating Novell eDirectory and Active Directory for Dummies
![Jese Leos](https://bestseller.deedeebook.com/author/ezekiel-cox.jpg)
Novell eDirectory and Active Directory (AD) are two of the most popular directory services used in enterprise networks today. eDirectory is a proprietary LDAP-based directory service developed by Novell, while AD is a Microsoft-proprietary LDAP-based directory service.
Integrating eDirectory and AD can provide a number of benefits for organizations, including:
- Centralized user management: Manage users and groups from a single console, regardless of which directory service they are stored in.
- Single sign-on (SSO): Allow users to access applications and resources using a single set of credentials across both eDirectory and AD.
- Improved security: By integrating eDirectory and AD, organizations can create a more secure environment by centralizing user authentication and authorization.
Before you begin integrating eDirectory and AD, it is important to carefully plan your integration. This includes:

- Identifying the scope of your integration: Determine which users and groups need to be integrated, and which applications and resources will be accessed using SSO.
- Choosing a synchronization method: There are a number of different methods for synchronizing eDirectory and AD, including:
- Full synchronization: This method replicates all changes between eDirectory and AD.
- Incremental synchronization: This method only replicates changes that have occurred since the last synchronization.
- Configuring your synchronization schedule: Determine how often you want to synchronize your directories.
- Testing your integration: Once you have configured your integration, it is important to test it thoroughly to ensure that it is working as expected.
Once you have planned your integration, you can begin configuring it. The specific steps involved will vary depending on the synchronization method you choose. However, the following general steps are common to all synchronization methods:
- Install the necessary software: You will need to install the appropriate software on both your eDirectory and AD servers.
- Configure your synchronization settings: This includes specifying the scope of your integration, the synchronization method, and the synchronization schedule.
- Create a synchronization account: This account will be used to perform the synchronization between eDirectory and AD.
- Start the synchronization process: Once you have configured your synchronization settings, you can start the synchronization process.
If you encounter any problems with your integration, there are a number of troubleshooting steps you can take:
- Check the synchronization logs: The synchronization logs can provide you with information about any errors that have occurred during the synchronization process.
- Check the event logs: The event logs can also provide you with information about any errors that have occurred.
- Contact Novell or Microsoft support: If you are unable to resolve the problem on your own, you can contact Novell or Microsoft support for assistance.
There are a number of best practices that you can follow to ensure that your integration is successful. These include:
- Use a dedicated synchronization server: This will help to ensure that the synchronization process is not impacted by other server processes.
- Schedule regular synchronization: This will help to ensure that your directories are always up-to-date.
- Monitor your synchronization process: This will help you to identify and resolve any problems that may occur.
- Implement SSO: SSO can provide a number of benefits for users, including improved convenience and security.
Integrating eDirectory and AD can provide a number of benefits for organizations. By carefully planning, configuring, and troubleshooting your integration, you can ensure that it is successful and that you are able to reap the benefits of a unified directory service.
