Group calendar and mobile directory catalog
Groups in a Domino Directory do not expand to individual members in the Group Calendar if you are using a Mobile Directory Catalog that does not contain the group members. To use both features, do the following:
1. Ensure your Personal Address Book (NAMES.NSF) is listed before the directory catalog in the Mail and News settings of User Preferences.
2. Select the group name in the Domino Directory.
3. Choose "Copy to Personal Address Book."
Alternatively, you can list each of the group members individually in the group calendar, or obtain a directory catalog from their administrator that contains members of public groups.
When creating or editing a Group Calendar, a Names dialog box is provided to allow the user to choose the individual members of the Group Calendar. The domain names for the individual members are not included in the Group Calendar if the members were chosen from a Directory Catalog (local or server based).
This absence of a domain name may prevent freetime from being obtained for the Group Calendar members in the following situation:
- The user's current location is a connected location. This means that freetime information will be obtained from the user's home server as opposed to using the client's local freetime database.
- The individual member(s) are not in the same domain as the user who is editing the Group Calendar.
- The user's home server is not properly configured to resolve name lookups for members that are not in the user's domain.
The solution is to ensure that your home server is properly configured to use Directory Catalogs and is able to resolve name lookups for user names that are not in the server's domain.
