[UniMacTech] LDAP users with NetInfo groups in Workgroup manager 10.4.4

[Darryl Rosin]

Hello.

For the first time, I've had to start managing some local groups on OS X 
Server with user accounts coming from an Novell eDirectory. There are 
Posix extensions in the eDir's LDAP schema but not the full set of MCX 
stuff.

when I drag the users into the group Members pane everything is fine, I 
see the Name , the GUID and the Shortname of the users. But after I quit 
and relaunch, WGM says "not found" for the name and leaves the shortname 
blank. GUID is still there, but that's of little help to me trying to 
identifying users. Everthing appears to be working OK other than that.

Any idea what's causing this? And How I might fix or work around it?

thnaks!
