Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue or how to fix it. Problem occured on 6.5 and 8.0.1
All our Databse ACL’s have groups in them for access and we add people to the groups, the problem is when we add people to the group the access doesn’t take effect until the next day.
The server goes down each night for backup too so it could also be the reboot that triggers it.
Pretty easy to get around we just add the user to the Group and directly in the ACL (which works) if they need it straight away then remove from the ACL the next day.
Not a show stopper just really annoying. Anyone experienced this before?
Subject: ACL Delay
First off, are you actually updating the Name and Address book on the same server as your application ?
For example, in IBM we update a separate ACL control database which propagates to the N&A overnight - that way folks can update the Groups without having update access to the N&A.
Presuming you are doing that, once the group is updated, the user you added should log off Notes and log on again. This is because when you log on, the Notes client reads the N&A to determine which groups you are in, and caches that information.

Hi,
Thanks for the response. Yes the application is on the same server as the Address Book. Definitely tried restarting the clients but still doesn’t work until the next day.

Did you try issuing server console command: “Show NLCache Reset”?

SPR# JRON6ZXP5J - This fix is an enhancement to the NAMELookup cache to invalidate individual entries rather than entire groups. Enhancement is not enabled by default and will only be enabled if the NAMELookup cache version has been increased to 4 by setting the Notes/Domino ini variable ( NLCACHE_VERSION=4 ). The current NAMELookup cache is version 2, which is the default for Domino 7x.
