remark (current). A mouse click on the symbol or on (current) causes the tabs and information relating
to the object to be displayed.
The tabs in the editing mode correspond to those in the ’adding objects’ mode, and will be described in
detail in the corresponding section of this manual (see chapter 4.5.
If the information is merely to be viewed, then the object should, after viewing, be quit by clicking the
[Cancel] button.
Some values are protected from changing and cannot be edited. Such values are displayed in grey.
Other values are compulsory; such values can usually be changed but not deleted. The field caption of
such a value is usually followed by an asterisk in brackets (*). These values have to be entered before the
tab can be left. Apart from this, random switching of the tabs is possible. The entered values are preserved
when switching tabs.
Once all the desired changes to an object have been executed, clicking the [Ok] button causes the entered
data to be accepted. The corresponding changes are then carried out in the LDAP directory.
4.5 Univention Directory Manager modules
Apart from the possibility to modify the LDAP directory via the LDAP browser, Univention Directory Man-
ager also provides several modules making it easier for the user to search, add, modify, and delete LDAP
objects, by combining common procedures (e.g. creating DHCP entries and DNS entries when creating a
new client object.
The attributes which can be administrated in an Univention Directory Manager module are subdi-
vided into standard attributes and advanced attributes. In the default settings only the standard at-
tributes are shown in the tabs of a module. Clicking Show the advanced settings shows the remain-
ing tabs. All attributes are shown as standard when the Univention Configuration Registry variable
directory/manager/web/modules/advancedview is set to 1.
A summary of the full scope of functions can be found in [8]).
