Environment
Client for Open Enterprise Server 2
Situation
Due to the large number of similarly named groups, it is desired to use wildcards in determining group membership in login script control statements. For example, given a set of groups such as:
group1-accounting
group1-sales
group1-finance
group1-manufacturing
and a login script statement such as:
IF MEMBER OF "*-accounting" THEN
etc.
Resolution
It is not possible to use wildcards in this way.
Cause
The Client for Open Enterprise Server uses the eDirectory 'read attribute' verb to read the membership list. That can be done only for one specific object; not a set of multiple objects.
