Chapter 6 Setting Up Computer Lists 107
Searching for Computer Lists
Workgroup Manager has a search feature that allows you to find specific computer lists
quickly. You can search within a selected domain and filter search results.
To search for a computer list:
1 In Workgroup Manager, click Accounts, click the Computer Lists button (on the left),
then click List (on the right).
2 To limit your search, click the small globe above the accounts list and choose a
directory domain:
Local: Search for computer lists in the local directory domain.
Search Path: Search for computer lists in all directories of the server’s search path (for
example, myserver.mydomain.com).
Other: Browse and select an available directory domain to search for computer lists.
3 To authenticate, click the lock.
4 Select an additional filter from the filter pop-up menu next to the search field, if you
wish.
5 Type search terms in the search field.
Managing Guest Computers
If an unknown computer (one that isn’t already in a computer list) connects to your
network and attempts to access services, that computer is treated as a “guest.” Settings
for the Guest Computers list apply to these unknown, or “guest,” computers.
A Guest Computers list is automatically created for a server’s local directory domain. If
the server is an Open Directory master or replica, a Guest Computers list is also created
for its LDAP directory domain.
The Guest Computers list is not recommended for large numbers of computers; most
computers should belong to regular computer lists.
Note: You cannot add or move computers to the Guest Computers list, and you cannot
change the list name.
To set up a Guest Computers list:
1 In Workgroup Manager, click Accounts.
2 Click the small globe above the accounts list and choose the directory domain that
contains the Guest Computers list you want to modify.
3 To authenticate, click the lock.
4 Click the Computer Lists button (on the left) and select Guest Computers in the list.
5 Click List (on the right), then select a setting for preferences.
