LDAP Synchronisation

The Securus Windows Client supports LDAP in the form of client side automatic syncing.

The client will reference your Active Directory when a user connects and will automatically create the OU structure for the location of the user, if it is missing. If the structure already exists, the user will be moved into the correct location.

We recommend enabling Client LDAP at the top level of your school OU structure.

Enable LDAP

To turn this feature on, go to the Settings view.

Go to Settings and click on LDAP.

Click on Edit.

Change Client LDAP to Yes if set to No. then click Save.

By default, LDAP will only sync user accounts. To enable syncing of station accounts, change Client Ldap Station to Yes as well.

Click Save to finish.

As the sync is based off recent logins, it may take a few days to fully populate all of your OU’s and groups from Active Directory.

Renaming and Removing LDAP Groups

LDAP groups can be renamed or removed to tidy up the structure. Please refer to the Renaming & Deleting Groups article for more information.
