IMPORTANT: You must restart the msgldap executable to effect any changes in the Address Book Agent's configuration. For information on loading and unloading the NetMail® Agents, see the Novell® NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.
Supported users are the messaging system contexts the Address Book Agent references to generate its user index. Users belonging to supported contexts are available for LDAP queries. Conversely, User objects not included in a supported context are not included in the agents index and, therefore, are not available for LDAP queries.
Users with an Unlisted Privacy status are not included in the system address book, regardless of whether they are in a supported NMAP context. For more information on defining a users privacy status, see the Privacy attribute in the User object's Internet Mail property page.
Because NMAP Agents define the messaging
systems supported contexts, the Supported Users property corresponds to NMAP
Agents. On a standalone messaging server, WebAdmin automatically
selects the NMAP Agent on the current server. In distributed
messaging systems, you can select any NMAP Agent on a distributed
messaging server that has users in its assigned contexts. Click the
Browse button
to select one or more NMAP Agents using the Browse
dialog box.
A single Address Book Agent can reference multiple NMAP Agents. However, you can only select one NMAP Agent when creating the Address Book Agent. You can add multiple NMAP Agents when configuring the agent.
