Adding pdl entries on the command line

[smellis]

When I add a entry on the command line, using omaddent, how do I add that entry to a group? I tried PARENT-DL=<local unique id of group>. When I Iook in the SAC, the entry I added is a member of the group I put in the PARENT-DL attribute, and If I look at the group, my entry is listed as a member.

The Problem

When draft a message in outlook, and add the group to the "to" line, the entry mentioned above is not in the list of addresses that the message will be sent to. Also, if I do omsearch -e "CN=Name of My Group" or omshowpdln -l "CN=Name of My Group" It lists the entries we add in the SAC, but not the entry I added on the command line. I added the entry incorrectly.

Can anyone tell me what I did wrong?

Hi,

Only the om*pdl* commands should be used to manage groups (PDL) outside SAC. In your case your should have used omaddpdln (see man page) rather than some other means (ommodent presumably) as this will be incomplete and causes problem further down.
