Group and ACL

Hi All,

I have a problem with group and ACL Members. I have create a database. and create two groups. MAR and PRO

MAR Groups contains user “mar_XYZ” and “mar_PQR”. in PRO there are two user “pro_XYZ” and “pro_PQR”. I added this group in my newly created database and assign role [PRO] to PRO group and Role [MAR] assigned to MAR group. Now if i add or change group member from group the given role is not instantly updated. I also used load updall names.nsf and load updall myDatabase.nsf.

Please Help me why it didn’t get updated. And what i have need to do instantly effect.

Thanks in advance

changes to group memebership will take a while to update (maybe 20 mins)I think you can force the server to re-read the group by doing a dbcache flush from the console.

hope this helps

Also, I believe that the user has to get out of the database and go back in for it to take affect at the user end- I do not know if a “drop all” at the server side effectively does that.

Thanks Mark for your kind response.

But this is not working… Please Help. I was wating for last 2 days after updating the group members. Today one more day passed away. Still group member is not updated.

I’m having the same problem but on a recently upgraded 8.0.1 server. It’s not a solution but it is a quick fix: on the server manually run

load updall names.nsf -V

and usually 10-20 minutes after that the ACLs reflect the group changes.
