AD-Sync doesn't ignore computer objects

Hi and welcome back :slight_smile:

if a variable does not exist, you can simply create it via “ucr set”:

ucr set connector/ad/mapping/computer/syncmode=none

The reason why the connector variables are named a bit strange is the following:
It is possible to run more than one instance of the Univention-AD-Connector on the same host (not via the UMC module, needs to be configurde on the shell). This way UCS can sync with several independent MS Active Directories:

                   +-----------+
                   |           |
                   |    UCS    |
          +-------->           <---------+
          |        |           |         |
          |        +-----------+         |
connector |                              | connector2
          |                              |
          |                              |
          |                              |
          |                              |
   +------v-----+                  +-----v------+
   |            |                  |            |
   |            |                  |            |
   |   AD 1     |                  |   AD 2     |
   |            |                  |            |
   |            |                  |            |
   +------------+                  +------------+

The first (default) instance is always called connector but the second can be named as you like as long as it starts with “con”. The “con.*” you see in the UCR variables is just the corresponding regular expression to make this work. Think of it as a placeholder.
