Environment

Novell SecureLogin
NSL6.1 HF14
imanager 2.7
Plugin from HF14
Preferences are set on both a group and the container to which a user belongs

Situation

When preference settings are configured on both a group and a container, the SecureLogin SSO plugin
will show the preferences set on the Group object, but not the preferences set on
the OU.

SLManager shows both sets of preferences, those applied to the group
and those applied to the OU.

Both sets of preferences are applied when the user
launches NSL.

Resolution

Bug report has been entered.

Workaround:  Use SLManager to view the applied settings when a group and a container are both involved.

Additional Information

Steps to duplicate:
1. Using iManager, add a group to the Configured Groups listed in the Advanced
Settings tab of a container.
2. Add a user who resides in that same container to the group.
3. Set some preferences on the container.
4. Set other preferences on the group.
5. Still using iManager Look at the preferences tab for the user. The
preferences set on the group will be visible, but the preferences set on the
container will not be visible.
6. Open SLManager and look at the preferences for the user. Both the
preferences set on the group and the preferences set on the container will be
visible.
7. Login as the user and launch SecureLogin. Both sets of preferences will
apply.

Conclusion: iManager does not show the preferences set on the OU when a user
belongs to a listed group to which other preferences have been applied.
