Hi Mike,

When a user is associated to an LDAP object i.e. eDir, then all name changes etc need to be made in eDir, preferably using iManager. Those changes will sync automatically according to your sync schedule or alternatively you can manually initiate a sync just on that user object in the GroupWise Admin Console.

In order to correct your situation, as far as I am aware, you need to reassociate the GroupWise user object with the corresponding eDirectory object. I would recommend that you double-check the association that you have created between that object in GroupWise with the LDAP directory in question.

Please let us know how it goes.

Cheers,

Well thank you, now that I found iManager again I see where I can make those changes, not sure how to get my other user fixed however.



This is what I currently have for her



LDAP User:cn=username,ou=ccrr,o=umchs

But that isn't working, got rid of the Error 34 Syntax issue and let me "associate" but not working.

Hi Mike,

Just so we are both clear on what has happened, kindly describe how you created the new association between the GroupWise object and the eDir object. I just want to ensure that I'm not missing anything here.

Another thing that you can do is compare the LDAP GUID on the GroupWise user object with the GUID on the eDir User Object, specifically the last 12 digits - at least those are the digits that I look at!

I started this "journey" wanting to change the last name of a person, and all fields were locked. Couldn't access iManager so I read a forum post about disassociating the user to allow the change. BINGO! That worked great, name changed. But now she has to log into Netware and then GroupWise and it's more of a hassle than anything.



I am trying now to get that fixed. I clicked on the "More" menu in the GroupWise Admin console (web based) and then Associate, and then found that LDAP string on another forum and it accepted it, but it doesn't seem to be working.



I do not know where to find the LDAP GUID in GroupWise or C1, so I would love to compare those but am not sure how. I did just click on "Display Object Information" and found GUID and there is a section of 12 numbers at the end. Just don't know what/where to compare that to now.
