Adding New Users With The DSGW

 
The DSGW lets you easily add new users to the directory.  In practice, this procedure is only used to make simple changes to the directory, or to test a new installation by adding some sample entries.  Large numbers of entries would normally be added to the directory using an LDIF import operation.

Adding New Users

You add new users by clicking the New Entry tab at the top of the form, or click the New Entry link in the body of the form.  This takes you to the page pictured below.

 

By following each step, a new entry is initiated.  Clicking Continue takes you to a page where detailed information about the new entry can be added.  When all of the pertinent data is added, clicking Save New Person adds the entry to the Directory Server database.
