Using SAC to modify User after omldapsync

Hello,

i've tried to setup synchronisation between OpenLDAP and Scalix 11.0.2.23 using type 13. Everything works fine (the users are created in Scalix, and are able to login into SWA), but when i want to use the SAC to modify some Scalix-specific option (like class) i'm unable to change anything because everything is greyed out.

I've already compared the entries with omldapsearch from a user created with SAC and one with omldapsync and already tried to set all attributes the same, but i wasn't able to change anything with SAC (ommodu on the other hand works fine).

Does anybody know what i could do to "unlock" SAC?

Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,

Markus Lidel

Hi,

It is intentional that SAC prevents modification of the user mastered on another directory such as OpenLDAP to prevent out of sync.

However if you really want to bypass that, try modify the user entry in SYSTEM directory to have ADMINISTERED-BY=scalix using ommodent. Be warned of course that things may become out of sync with your master OpenLDAP source.

Regards,
Danny

Yes i'm aware of it, but it's only for testing.
