Active Directory - Rename object

IMPORTANT: Active Directory activities require a basic understanding of Active Directory and related components (e.g.,Domain Controllers, Trust Relationships, Forests, LDAPs, etc.). Also, to ensure that these activities function appropriately, the target system must be part of a domain.

Authentication type

Text (options)

No

Default

AUTHTYPE="Encryption"

Specifies the types of authentication used. The available options are:

• Default - Use default authentication type.

• None - Equates to zero, which means to use basic authentication (simple bind) in the LDAP provider.

• Secure - Requests secure authentication. When this flag is set, the WinNT provider uses NTLM to authenticate the client.

• Encryption - Attaches a cryptographic signature to the message that both identifies the sender and ensures that the message has not been modified in transit.

• SecureSocketLayer - Attaches a cryptographic signature to the message that both identifies the sender and ensures that the message has not been modified in transit.

• ReadonlyServer - For a WinNT provider, ADSI tries to connect to a domain controller. For Active Directory Domain Services, this flag indicates that a writable server is not required for a serverless binding.

• Anonymous - No authentication is performed.

• FastBind - Specifies that ADSI will not attempt to query the Active Directory Domain Services objectClass property. Therefore, only the base interfaces that are supported by all ADSI objects will be exposed. Other interfaces that the object supports will not be available.

• Signing - Verifies data integrity to ensure that the data received is the same as the data sent. The Secure flag must also be set to use signing.

• Sealing - Encrypts data using Kerberos. The Secure flag must also be set to use sealing.

• Delegation - Enables Active Directory Services Interface (ADSI) to delegate the user's security context, which is necessary for moving objects across domains.

• ServerBind - If your ADsPath includes a server name, specify this flag when using the LDAP provider. Do not use this flag for paths that include a domain name or for serverless paths. Specifying a server name without also specifying this flag results in unnecessary network traffic.
