UseAutoPrivateGroup

Determines whether to use a private group when adding a user to the zone.

Syntax

bool UseAutoPrivateGroup {get; set;}

Property value

When this value is true, IBM Security uses a private group when adding a user to the zone.

Discussion

A private group automatically sets the user’s UNIX profile name as the user’s primary group name and the user’s UID as the user’s primary group GID. Automatically-generated groups are not stored or managed in Active Directory.

Call the IsUseAutoPrivateGroupDefined property before attempting to get the value for this property.

Exceptions

UseAutoPrivateGroup may throw one of the following exceptions:

  • FormatException if the GID is not a number.

  • InvalidOperationException if the UseAutoPrivateGroup property has not been defined.
