Cannot Import or Export Null Attribute Value to or from Netscape Directory (269215)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Metadirectory Services 2.1
This article was previously published under Q269215 SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to import a Null attribute value from the Netscape directory, the metaverse attribute is not cleared.
When you attempt to export a Null value to the Netscape directory, no changes are made to the Netscape directory.
CAUSE
In the case of an import, the import file does not include the attribute assignment, and therefore the attribute is not changed in the metaverse.
In the case of an export, the create file does not include the attribute assignment, and therefore no changes are passed to the connected directory.
RESOLUTION
This problem is resolved in Microsoft Metadirectory Services version 2.2.
MORE INFORMATION
The Null value could be the result of deleting or removing information, such as a phone number or other user attribute, from the user information in the directory. The desired change is not reproduced to or from the metaverse.
