Auditing Active Directory Groups

By default this task will audit all groups in Active Directory before asking the user to choose.

This can take a long time on large domains, & you may want to narrow down the search for operational & security reasons.

You can target the search at a specific Container or Organizational Unit by supplying a distinguishedName on line 10.

Required Vault Details

Active Directory

  • IP/DNS address of a Domain Controller
  • Domain FQDN
  • Username
  • Password

As this is a privileged task, the Active Directory credentials require the permission to add a user to one or more groups.

Vault Configuration Wizard

The first time you run a task built from this playbook, PPA will check the required Vault details exist.

If they don't exist, PPA will ask you to supply the details at the start of the task.

Below you can see a user providing details the first time they run an Active Directory task.

vault-config-wizard

Once the details are added to Vault, the task won't ask for them again.

If you don't know the required details, ask an administrator to run the task or configure Vault manually.

What the Task Does

Once started, this task allows the operator to:

  • Search for and select an Active Directory user
  • Choose one or more Security Groups to add the user to
  • Confirm the selection
