Adventures in identity management
Following on from the last post about adding a CheckBox, here’s how I added a RadioButtonList to a custom workflow UI. Note: I have also uploaded a version of this to the Technet Wiki: How to Add a RadioButtonList to a FIM Custom Workflow UI
The only examples of custom workflows I’ve seen so far use text boxes for all data entry on the UI. Here’s how I went about adding a check box to my UI. Note: I have also posted a version of this to the Technet Wiki: How to Add a CheckBox to a FIM Custom Workflow…
Three years now – must be doing something right 🙂
The FIM Sync Service allows passwords to be synchronised from a source AD account to the user’s accounts in other systems. The sync is done at the point of password change and relies on the Password Change Notification Service, which you must install on your domain controllers. Many target systems are supported OOB, but for BPOS you…
I have finally got round to updating my long neglected Code Snippets page. I will try and keep it more up to date in future!
This year I have been working on a large BPOS project, with 17000 mailboxes being migrated from a variety of source mail systems. As is currently obligatory for such an installation, we use DirSync to synchronise users, groups and contacts from a source AD to BPOS. So while I don’t need my own BPOS MA…
I’m still working on clearing up an enormous number of public folders prior to migration to Exchange 2010 (from 2007). The permissions structure was not well managed so I have been applying a set of standard groups (Read, Update and Change) to each PF, and at the same time removing any rights granted to Everyone…
I was entertained by this comment in Jackson’s summary post about Neil MacDonald’s session at the Gartner Summit : Gartner’s position is that FIM 2010 is not a complete solution. It can be extended, and by 3rd party partners like Quest but it’s like going to the unfinished furniture store. It’s not a bad analogy –…
This post is going to describe an approach I’ve used a couple of times this year, in situations which looked quite different at the outset, but actually had one particular characteristic in common: the source data contained multiple records relating to individual people, and I needed access to all of them. One case involves “contract”…
Just a quick note on this as it’s something that wasn’t immediately obvious to me. I was using the Metaverse GUID as an anchor for provisioning to a simple SQL MA like so: csentry(“mvguid”).StringValue = mventry.ObjectID.ToString However when I tried to do a direct join rule on csentry:mvguid = mventry:<object-id> I got the error cannot-parse-object-id. In…
