Links tab (--links)

Objects with this attribute

Usage

Object Manager	Links tab	Drop objects into the box.
Command line	`--links object...`	Replace `object` with the full TFN name of the object. For example, `".../_ens/o=Indigo Insurance/ou=Finance/cn=XClaim"`.

Description

This attribute defines the content of a webtop. Each link is stored as a reference to the object, so a particular object may appear on many webtops. (If an object is moved or renamed later, all references to it are automatically updated.)

If a group is added to a Links tab, the group's members (and not the group) appear on the webtop.
If an organizational unit is added to a Links tab, the webtop content for that organizational unit (and not the organizational unit) appears on the webtop.

Person objects and organizational unit objects may inherit webtop content from their parent in the organizational hierarchy.

On the command line, make sure you quote any object names containing spaces.

Examples

--links ".../_ens/o=Indigo Insurance/cn=Pers-o-dat" \
        ".../_ens/o=Indigo Insurance/cn=Slide-o-win"

Adds Pers-o-dat and Slide-o-win as links on a webtop.
