Computer Locations

[steve.beckwith]

Can someone advise on how I can get the veyon master to display the computers and locations from Active Directory. I have tested all of the LDAP settings I have configured and it queries and reports the correct number of computers in the specified OU but only displays My PC. The only way I can get it to work is to Manually add the locations and computers in Configurator and change the basic setting to use the local Location lists instead of LDAP. Its currently working with this configuration but I would like to use AD.

Hello,
In our organization, we fill in the attribute "location" in the SAMBA-AD attribute of a computer.

Then in the Veyon Configurator, in the LDAP Basic/Advanced parameters page, for the identification of the location of a computer I choose "Location Attribute in computer objects" (or something similar as mine is set in french language)

Also, in the LDAP Basic environnement paramaters page, for the field "Computer Location Attribute", I fill in "location". (not sure this last one is mandatory - I can' recall exactly as it is some time I have worked on these settings).

All the settings are set at the installation of Veyon with a json file preconfigured passed as an option to the Veyon installer , so everything is set automatically provided the AD has been fulfilled.
