managing AD distribution lists
Hi.
We've been managing AD distribution lists in through IM for quite some time, with no problems (Distribution List being a specific type of Resource Object for IM).
All is fine as long as the DL has ordinary AD users as members or people with sending rights. Problem arises as soon as I try to add AD Contacts to the DL. AD natively supports this, but IM seems to be running a query on the sAMAccountName attribute for all members and people with sending rights. Since contacts don't have a sAMAccountName attribute, it throws an error similar to
ERROR:Error retriving attributesamAccountName from: CN=testcontact,OU=Users,DC=example,DC=com Get(): 0X8000500D: E_ADS_PROPERTY_NOTFOUND
This occurred when I had already added the contact "testcontact" to the DL's "sending rights" field.
Is there anyway to prevent IM from running a query on sAMAccountName for members / people with sending rights, and instead perhaps run a query on cn etc.? Or is this a bug? Am using IM 5.5
Appreciate any help or insight on this. Have been confounded by this for sometime now.
Thanks!
Ankush
