Configuring
EasyUpdate
with
Active
Directory
Active
Directory
is
a
directory
service.
The
directory
is
where
information
about
end
users
and
resources
is
stored.
The
directory
service
allows
access
so
you
can
manipulate
those
resources.
Active
Directory
provides
a
mechanism
that
gives
administrators
the
ability
to
manage
computers,
groups,
end
users,
domains,
security
policies,
and
any
type
of
user-defined
objects.
The
mechanism
used
by
Active
Directory
to
accomplish
this
is
known
as
Group
Policy.
With
Group
Policy,
administrators
define
settings
that
can
be
applied
to
computers
or
users
in
the
domain.
The
following
examples
are
settings
that
Active
Directory
can
manage
for
EasyUpdate:
v
Scheduler
settings
v
Mapped
Network
Drive
settings
Administrative
(ADM)
template
files
The
Administrative
(ADM)
template
file
defines
policy
settings
used
by
applications
on
a
client
computer.
Policies
are
specific
settings
that
govern
the
application
behavior.
Policy
settings
also
define
whether
the
end
user
will
be
allowed
to
set
specific
settings
through
the
application.
The
ADM
file
can
be
downloaded
from
the
following
Lenovo
Support
Web
site:
Settings
defined
by
an
administrator
on
the
server
are
defined
as
policies.
Settings
defined
by
an
end
user
on
the
client
computer
for
an
application
are
defined
as
preferences.
As
defined
by
Microsoft
®
,
policy
settings
take
precedence
over
preferences.
When
EasyUpdate
checks
for
a
setting,
it
will
look
for
the
setting
in
the
following
order:
