    Values
    Requirements

    The majority of values in this table correlate directly with the LDAP database.

    The OU (organization unit) must exist (or be created) manually in the LDAP database prior to services being configured for users.

    Operation

    For some services the configured Hash serves as a preferred Hash. For services with an objectClass of "posixAccount" any of CRYPT, MD5, SHA, SSHA, or SMD5 will be used if the configured Hash is not available for a user. This is to allow services converted from UNIX password files having CRYPT-encoded passwords to still be used for authentication if another Hash is preferred.

    Access level (LV) controls which forms can modify accounts. Any account configured with a service having a more critical access level (lower values) may not be updated from forms with more limited access. The E-Mail Account form, for example, will not allow modification to any account that has student database access.
