IsForeign

Indicates whether the corresponding Active Directory group for a UNIX profile is in a different Active Directory forest than the forest associated with the group profile in the zone.

Syntax

bool IsForeign {get;}

Property value

Returns true if the UNIX profile is associated with an Active Directory group in a different forest.

Discussion

If the Active Directory group is in a different forest than the one associated with a top-level IBM Security data object (Cims object), the property returns true.

This property is always false for newly-created groups before the group object is committed to Active Directory.

Example

The following code sample illustrates using IsForeign in a script:

...  
'Get the zone object  
Set objZone = cims.GetZone("ajax.org/UNIX/Zones/pilot")  
'Check the forest for groups in the zone  
For each profile in objZone.GetGroupUnixProfiles  
if profile.IsForeign then  
wScript.Echo profile.Name  
end if  
next  
...
