3.3 Configuring the Multi-Domain Active Directory Driver

To configure a new driver shim instance:

  1. Create the driver using the Designer tool. For more information, see Section 4.0, Creating a New Driver.

  2. Use the .NET Remote Loader graphical interface to configure the Multi-Domain Active Directory Driver.

    1. Browse to the installation directory of the .NET Remote Loader and run rlconsole.exe to open the GUI console. The .NET Remote Loader GUI is similar to the traditional Remote Loader GUI.

    2. Click Add, then specify the Description, Driver (DXMLMADDriver.dll) and other parameters in the page that displays.

    3. To configure the Multi-Domain Active Directory driver as an application, deselect the Establish a Remote Loader service for this driver instance.

      NOTE:You can configure the Multi-Domain Active Directory driver as an application or as a service.

    4. Click OK. A prompt displays asking you if you want to start the Remote Loader. You can start the driver now or later.

      When the driver is started as an application, a trace window opens. It doesn’t open if the driver is started as a service.

  3. Set up password synchronization. For more information, see Section 6.0, Synchronizing Passwords.

  4. If using Exchange, prepare your domains for mailbox provisioning. For more information, see Section 8.0, Provisioning Exchange Mailboxes.
