Sync Active Directory users and contacts as public contacts
We are using Microsoft Exchange in parallel to MDaemon. It would be good to be able to sync all the AD users to the address book without creating MDaemon users for all of them. There should be a filter for which user objects MDaemon users are to be created, the others would just be synced as public contacts.
Hello,
Thank you for sharing your idea to sync Active Directory users to the address book in MDaemon without creating accounts. This is already possible in the current version of MDaemon. To enable it go to Accounts / Account Settings / Active Directory / Authentication, properly configure the dialog so that MDaemon can access Active Directory and be sure to set the desired Contact Search Filter. Then go to the Monitoring tab and uncheck the box for Monitor Active Directory and create/update MDaemon accounts. Check the box for Monitor Active Directory and update public address book(s).
If you would like further assistance configuring this, please contact our support team. All of our support options can be found at http://www.altn.com/support/
