How to provision mobile devices with external LDAP

Question

Hello, 
 
 i have received 10 mobiles devices, and i have to enroll them into SMC, without ask users for their AD password. 
 
 The only way i found to enroll a device of an AD user, is to connect on Self Service Portal with the user account. 
 or to send them a mail. 
 But i would like to enroll and assign device to each user before to give to them. 
 
 Do you know how i could do that ? 
 
 thanks a lot 
 Cedric

Hi Cedric, 
 with Sophos Mobile Control 6.0.5 a so called "Device enrollment Wizard" was introduced. If you have installed SMC 6.0.5 there should be a Widget on the Dashboard, saying "Add Device". 
 Using this wizard, you as an admin can easily register a mobile device, link and LDAP user and then send profiles to the device. 
 If you are not yet on SMC 6.0.5 I suggest to update to that version. You can also have a look at the " What's New " and " How to update " articles for further information. 
 Hope this helps.
