Adding the impersonation user to your Content Manager configuration

Impersonation user settings are used to identify the Windows accounts that are trusted to perform Content Manager impersonation and, in the case of LDAP impersonation users, to identify the relevant configuration of an LDAP server.

Procedure

  1. Start the SDL Tridion MMC Snap-in by selecting Programs > SDL Tridion > SDL Tridion Content Manager configuration in the Microsoft Windows Start menu.
  2. In the SDL Tridion MMC Snap-in, right-click on the Impersonation User icon and select New Impersonation User.
  3. Under Windows User, enter the name of the impersonation user used by the Web site. This impersonation user is associated with the NETWORK SERVICE account, and can be configured in the SDL Tridion MMC Snap-in. Refer to Impersonation users for more details.
  4. Select the Directory Service option.
  5. Click OK.
  6. To automatically add users to the Content Manager user list, right-click on the Directory Service you created for LDAP and select Group Sync Enabled.
