Active Directory users imported to Sharepoint

Asked By: Willis Camacho Date: Sep 15, 2005 Category: Sharepoint Views: 342

I have imported users from the active directory using "Mange Profile
Database" under "User Profile, Audiences, and Personal Sites" in Site
Settings.

Is there a way that all these users get into "Manage Users" listing
under "General Settings" and have Reader role assigned instead of
manually typing in each user and assigning them the profile.

OR

If they cannot be added into "Manage Users" listing then have thir role
default to "Reader" profile after import from Active Directory.

if you just do a "NT AUTHORITY\AUTHENTICATED USERS" or create a group in AD (even DOMAIN USERS would work in some cases). - thats how we do it.

Where would you do "NT AUTHORITY\AUTHENTICATED USERS"

Can you please describe this in a bit more detail.

Answer #3 Answered By: Rigoberto Beard Answered On: Sep 15, 2005

What I normally do is add DOMAIN\DOMAIN users with Reader permission.
That usually covers everyone. For the rare cases that it doesn't, then I
will add individual users (although, I try to avoid that and focus on
domain groups only).
