Ignore some LDAP rooms

zimbo

I use a Novell eDirectory LDAP to query room OUs for related rooms. This works well, but there is still a problem, which I do not get solved.

We have a parent ou "ou = Arbeitsstationen" in which the ou "ou = room001" etc. are located.
Veyon Master 4.1.7 will now switch to the room "Arbeitsstationen" on one start, and the room "Room001" on the other start.
Is there a way for the LDAP-based query of the associated rooms to exclude a room ("Arbeitsstationen") or to use only the highest room in the hierarchy?

I found a dirty workaround. Beginning with Veyon Master v4.1.9 it showes room "Arbeitsstationen" every time. It seems it uses always alphabetical order. So it is a workaround to rename the ou ...

Thanks
Sven

Hello,

have you enabled or disabled recursive LDAP queries? Changing the setting also affects how rooms in an OU are queried.

Hello and thanks

Recursive search is active, but it is also needed because of the nesting of user groups and room groups.

This is related to bugtracker https://github.com/veyon/veyon/issues/465 .
The renaming is a working workaround for me. Pay attention to the alphabetical order of nested items in the LDAP tree.

-workstations
-- Workdepartment1
---- Room01
---- Room02
-- Workdepartment2
---- Room03
---- Room04

That's how it works for at the moment.
