Q.
We use the Novell ActiveX Controls to programmatically add email addresses to a mailing list on NIMs version 3.0.3c and eDirectory 8.6.2 Support Pack 2A. The problem is with the following statement:
mail.SetFieldValue "NIMS:ListUserOptions", "-11"
When you execute it the code, the following error appears:
Error Type: NWIDirE.NWEntry.1 (0x80040011) Undefined attribute type
A.
For LDAP, you need to map the NDS name to a proper LDAP name. To do this, bring up the LDAPGroup object in the ConsoleOne utility, and select Attribute Mappings tab. Add NDS attribute NIMS: List User Options and map to NIMSListUserOptions.
A discussion of NDS names versus LDAP names is at Schema Naming Rules at the following location: http://developer.novell.com/ndk/doc/ldapover/ldap_enu/data/a3xfo7x.html#a3xfre2
