Sonatype CLM Server - Security Administration

From the security tab of an application or organization, click the Edit icon (it resembles a pencil).

	Remember mapping a user to a role at the organization level will grant that user the same role and permissions to any associated applications.

A search widget will be displayed. In the search field, enter the user’s name exactly as it is entered in your LDAP server. For example if you are looking for Isaac Asimov, you would enter that complete name. In cases where you don’t know a user’s complete name, leading or trailing wildcards (*) can be added. Using the example above, if I only knew the first name of the user, I could simply enter Isaac A*.

	Use of leading wildcards can greatly impact user search times.

	Wildcards are only applicable for users of Sonatype CLM including, and beyond, version Sonatype CLM 1.11.1. All prior versions of Sonatype CLM do not support wildcard usage when mapping users to roles, as this is automatically appended/prepended to the search text (i.e. searching for smith is equivalent to *smith* in 1.11.1 and later).

	You may notice that below each user, there is additional information. Most often this is the email. However, to the right of the email you will see the Realm (e.g. CLM). Use this to ensure you add the appropriate account (e.g. when working with CLM the local realm, and LDAP).

Once you see the user you wish to add in the Available column, click the Plus icon to move them to the Applied column. Click the Save button to save your changes.

	To remove users from a role, follow the same process above, just click the Minus icon to move the user from the Applied column to the Available column.
