Hello Fellas,

Just want to know if there's easiest way to import handful (3-5K) of users from my AD to my FortiMail running in Server mode.

Or anyone have tried this?

Looking at this link below seems intended only for creating local accounts.

Hello

First: define a LDAP profile, i.e <LDAP_Profile>

Second: Try to build your clean LDAP users csv file in this format:

User name, Password, Display, Ldap name, Radius name

user@domain, , NameSurname, <LDAP_Profile>,

......

Severe hardcoded user limits are defined for local users in server mode, so if don't take care with the procedure, you will receive a failure error message importing users as local.

Unless you have a FML3200E or VM32 to manage such number of users as you posted.

Hi Abel, appreciate your inputs. Yes that's the plan use FML 3000E model (A-P) mode with NAS storage to store messages.

Exploring my AD Server and there's an option to Export User lists into .txt format. Well that something I need to figure out how to convert into csv format.
