Environment
Novell eDirectory 8.7.3.9 for All Platforms
Novell eDirectory 8.8 for All Platforms
Novell eDirectory 8.8 for All Platforms
Situation
The default Surname (SN) value for the admin user upon creation of
a tree varies depending on the platform upon which that tree is
built. The first server in the tree creates the admin user's
Surname as 'admin' if the platform is NetWare but for all other
platforms creates the Surname as a single ascii space.
Resolution
Change the admin's surname in any tree that was original created with a platform other than NetWare. This has also been reported to Novell Engineering.
This has been resolved in eDir 8.8SP3
