Locate Recursive Group Membership

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hi all,

Does anybody know how to locate recursive group membership.

E.g. A group called Red contains a Group called Blue, which contains the original group Red.

The loop may occur further down the nested groups.

Within Domino it seems to handle this issue. But within Sametime it causes performance issues with the name resolver. I have a feeling that some groups may contain this scenario, but there are thousands of groups.

I hoped the Dirlint tool may assist, but cannot see the wood through the trees with the output file.

An LDAP Tool maybe ?

Thanks

Paul

Subject: Some suggestions

Check out the MailExpandNames() call in the Notes API if you are a C coder. You can use that call to help sift thru all the data.

You can also Google for the “Collaborative Cuisine’s 1 Hour JNDI Cookbook” that was put out a long time ago. It has Java code to expand groups via JNDI/LDAP. The Sandbox link is no longer good (the Sandbox was sunset years ago) but there is at least 1 site that still hosts it.
