RE: How many OUs in LDAP can Jahia search?

I wish I would have known that before, Thomas. I discovered that after a long day of trial and error. At the end, we moved our Jahia Users OU to be under the Company Users OU

OU=Company_Users
   OU=Jahia_Users
   OU=Region_Users
      OU=Department_Users
   ...

I changed the users.ldap.property file users.ldap.public.bind.dn attribute to point to OU=Company_Users. Now Jahia can see all the users of my company. 

I changed the users.ldap.uid.search.name attribute to OU=Jahia_Users,OU=Company_Users,... and now Jahia can only see users and groups under the Jahia OU (I hide all the company users), but I can assign users and groups from any of the Company_Users OUs to the Jahia OU.

Thanks all for your help.

-Juan

Hi Juan,
You can switch to any other OU as your base dn - it is not needed to  
have a separate and specific tree - but you cannot have multiple  
entries. The users will be looked up in the entire subtree.
