I created a simple test applet that calls Groupwise.Account.DistinguishedName. Using this in caching mode leads to the GroupWise API raising the following error:

quote:

---

Account.Object
[text snipped]
The root account is remote.

This behaviour appears to be a defect in the GroupWise API. Unfortunately, all we can do is to inform Novell of this. We will post an update to this thread when we have more information.

We have received more information on this from Novell. It seems that,

since the remote (or caching) database has no connection to the Domain or Post Office databases, there is no way to get the Distinguished Name.

It may be worthwhile coding your applet to allow for both online or remote/caching modes. This probably means using the VBScript statement

  on error resume next

to suppress standard error-handling, so that your applet can control its user interface elegantly in all situations.

I hope this helps.
