Environment

Novell Open Enterprise Server 2 (OES 2)
Linux User Management
NAMCD

Situation

NAMCD cores on the OES2 server when starting NAMCD.

LUM services do not work

NAMCD does not start up

Resolution

The unix workstation context was not specified on the unix config object.

Populate the uamPosixWorkstationContexts attribute with the context where the workstations are located. This is a multi-valued attribute.

Reported to development. Possibly fixed in OES2 sp1.
