Chapter 4: Manage Domain Objects
File Format:
When you prepare a file to import, place each user account in an individual row. Each piece
of information should be separated by a
Tab
key in the following order:
1. Username 2. Password 3. Description 4. Email
5. First name 6. Last name 7. Full name
8. Profile path 9. Login script 10. Home directory
The format should meet the following requirements:
• The file must be in UTF-8 format.
• The order of columns must be correct (from left to right).
• The imported passwords must comply with the password strength requirements.
• Each line of information must contain nine tabs. If you want to skip a piece of information,
you still need to enter a Tab key to separate the empty value from the next value.
Edit User Properties
1. On a RWDC, go to the Users & Computers page and select the user you want to edit. Use
the Ctrl or Shift key for multiple selection.
2. Do either of the following:
• Click Action > Properties.
• Right-click the user and select Properties.
3. Go to the Account tab to edit the following properties:
• User login name: Rename the user.
• Login Hours: Select grid cells to Deny or Allow the user’s login hours. Click a specific day
or hour to select the entire day or the specified hour in each day, respectively.
• Usable Devices: Select which computers the user can access.
• Change password: Tick this checkbox to change the user's password.
• Lock out this account: This option is enabled when an account is locked out because of
the account lockout policies applied at Domain Policy > Account Lockout Policy. Disable
this option to unlock the locked account.
• Force this account to change password at next login: This account will be asked to
change the password upon next login to Windows or Synology NAS.
• Disallow the user to change password: This user will not be able to change the
password on their own.
• Password never expires: The user's password will never expire. We suggest enabling
this option only for administrators.
• Store passwords using reversible encryption: Enabling this option will compromise
domain security. This option is not recommended unless demands for domain client
services take higher priority over password security.
• Deactivate this account: Tick this checkbox to deactivate the user's account.
