How to sync specific Organizational Units from MS AD

FreePBX Applications / Modules
1

I’m trying to figure out how I can specify the organizational units that I want to sync with PBXact. I can do one OU by specifying that in the Base DN but how do I specify multiple OUs? Do I create a directory for each OU or is there some other way?

Hi @rnrstar ,

You can specify the Base DN in the format of DC=domain,DC=local , so that all the associated OU’s will be synced. But this includes all users & accounts like service users and disabled accounts.

Instead of syncing by OU, consider syncing by AD group membership:

  • Create a group like PBXUsers in AD.
  • Add users from any OU to this group.
  • In PBXact User Manager, filter sync by group membership.

Alternatively, you can

  • Create multiple directory entries in User Manager
  • Each with a different Base DN pointing to a specific OU
  • Assign different FreePBX groups or permissions per directory

Thanks
