uwc and shared domains supports
I have installed JES2005Q4 and have deployed delegated administrator using a 3-tier hierarchy and a service provider organization according to the DA admin guide. In uwc all components are working fine when the user resides in a full domain under the service provider.
But when I create a shared domain only the mail tab is functional. Both calendar and addressbook fail. Looking into it a little bit, I see that uwc only looks for the sunpreferreddomain attribute in a domain entry to determine the domain's name (used later for addressbook and calendar actions), which exists only in a full domain (sunorgtype=full). In a shared domain (sunorgtype=shared) just the associateddomain attribute exists (naturally).
The mail tab (through MEM) handles the case correctly. What is the case? Does uwc support users under a shared domain? Is there a way to customize the domain name lookup? Documentation has nothing relative.
Thanks a lot in advance for any help,
-Thomas.

This sure goes deeper than I understand DA, but the docs sure seem to think calendar should work in a shared domain (inheriting the setup from the superior domain.) You might get the attention of somebody who knows more by posting in the Calendar Server forum http://forum.sun.com/jive/forum.jspa?forumID=3 .

Oops, sorry I wasn't clear. Yes calendar works, and it is setup for hosted domain support. If some of the full domains users login it works fine, adressbook (of uwc) as well.
The problem is when the users of a shared domain login where calendar and addressbook components fail.
And to be more specific, addressbook constructs a psroot like:
o=user1,o=,o=pidbserver
when it should be:
o=user1,o=domain.com,o=pidbserver.
and ofcourse ab entries addition fail. Then calendar attempts to authorize a user:
'user1@' instead of 'user1@domain.com' and ofcourse fail.
Both problems are related to the fact tha uwc, lookup sunpreferreddomain
of the user organization entry, to acquire the domain name. But such an attribute does not exist in a shared domain. On such a domain only associateddomain exists, and it is never queried. That's where I am stuck.
