Extending the Schema
The schema is what describes the attributes that Active Directory can use. It contains information such as attribute name, attribute size or length, data type, and relationship to other attributes. The schema must be extended to also include Scalix attributes such as mailnode, account type (premium or standard), and so on.
Extending the Schema is documented in the Scalix Setup and Configuration Guide, Integrating with Active Directory, Installing the Schema Extensions.
Extending the GUI
The GUI is the user interface used to administer users in Active Directory. It is called "Active Directory Users and Computers," or ADUC. After the GUI is extended, you will have two new tabs in the User Properties or Group Properties window, where you can add or modify Scalix attributes.
Extending the Schema is documented in the Scalix Setup and Configuration Guide, Integrating with Active Directory, Installing the GUI Extensions.
