Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Julio Macavilca <>]

I am also provisioning to a flat ou in AD in dev/qa so I'm just doing dn: cn=${grouperUtil.extensionFromName(name)}||sAMAccountName: ${grouperUtil.extensionFromName(name)}

I would look in the javadoc in grouperUtil for the direct parent (perhaps parentStemNameFromName).

Correction:

${group.name.replace(":","-")}

I'll take a stab with:

${group.eValue("mail", false).replace(":","-")}

I do something similar in our Google Groups connector in dev, so that it'll replace our @uncg.edu's with @uncg.net's

I am progressing with PSPNG running pretty smoothly now, so I’m moving on to prettying up the data, but encountered another snag… we are pushing most groups to a single flat OU, using the ${group.name} the group as the CN (i.e., “stem1:mygroup”). And by default, if you don’t specify samAccountName in groupCreationLDIFTemplate, that ends up getting assigned a random value by AD, which is rather ugly and unusable in some interfaces.

 

I’d like to set the samAccountName to something equally unique, but of course I cannot use “:” colon characters in AD group names so ${group.name} fails. Setting samAccountName to ${group.extension} is potentially not unique if I have two groups with the same extension (i.e., “stem1:mygroup” and “stem2:mygroup”). 

 

So is there some clever JEXL trick that I can do to replace “:” with a hyphen “-“ in the ${group.name}?  Or can I do something like “${group.parentStem}-${group.extension}”?  Does anyone have some LDIF templates they’d be willing to share? It is so hard to test JEXL!

 

Thanks!
