Environment

Novell GroupWise 2014

Situation

The incorrect user name and/or password were entered on the LDAP Authentication tab under the LDAP server information for GroupWise 2014.  Unfortunately, clearing them does look like it is working but the incorrect information comes right back.

Resolution

This has been reported to engineering however the workaround is to clear the information with the following CURL command.

To remove incorrect user:
curl -k --user admin:password -X PUT
https://dom.mycompany.com:9710/gwadmin-service/system/directories /myedir?attrs=authUser
-d "{}" -H "Content-Type: application/json"

To remove incorrect password:
curl -k --user admin:password -X PUT
https://dom.mycompany.com:9710/gwadmin-service/system/directories/myedir?attrs=authUser,authPassword
-d "{}" -H "Content-Type: application/json"
