Situation

GroupWise Messenger is having problems importing users from multiple eDirectory trees.
Unable to add context from other trees to the Scope Profile.
Unable to see other trees when adding to the Scope Profile.

Resolution

This is currently working as designed.
A Enhancement Request has been reported to Engineering.
It is currently recommended that all users, to be found in the same GroupWise Messenger system, should be set up in the same tree under a flat context.

Status

Reported to Engineering

Additional Information

There was a time that LDAP could be used in order add users from additional NDS trees. That is no longer possible.
