Groupwise Address Book
Hi Everyone
Quick question, is there any way to remove the Groupwise Address Book from a user account.
I have created an email account, for external companies to access, that is unable to send any mail.
Now I would like to stop that user accessing the Groupwise Addresss Book.
The system is Groupwise 7.0.3 running on a Netware 5.1, SP8e, server.
Mike
So that wouldn't even be enough to hide it from someone who doesn't use GW
much ?
Can't really think of anything else offhand, without trying to disable the
address provider thing, and that would affect everybody using that Webaccess

Groupwise address book sync with Nextel Direct connect #'s for 8350i
Is there a way to sync address books for groupwise and 8350i to included the nextel direct connect information?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.Mapping solves the problem. Groupwise has no corresponding field for "Direct Connect". For ease of data entry, I mapped the Direct Connect field in my 8350i with the pager field in my groupwise address books. The BB desktop manager now syncs the nextel direct connect #'s.
The steps are:
In BB desk top manager, select Sync Configuration; address book; advanced; Field Mapping (at bottom of list). Map an unused field in the GW address book with the direct connect field in the 8350i.
I assumethis would also work with outlook and others. -
Novell Groupwise Address Book is missing
Hi,
on one workstation I have the problem that the Novell Groupwise Address book does not show up.
If I try to go to Services in the File menu, the hour glass shows up for a second and thats it.
Everything else is working on this workstation.
It was working in the beginning, and I did no changes to this user or the system lately.
Thank you, Reinhard.Originally Posted by mefay
Since one of my users had Office 2003 and was not using Outlook, I went to Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs, selected Microsoft Office 2003, and clicked on the Change button. Select the Add/Remove Features and check Outlook for removal. Without even rebooting, the user can see the Novell Address Book.
Just a note, I really thought there must be an easier or better way to solve this issue than uninstalling Outlook (not that I'm a "fan" of it, but I keep it for "testing" purposes and such).
I found that it was as simple as going in to Control Panel > Mail.
Click the "E-mail Accounts..." button.
Select the bottom radio button under Directory which is called "View or change existing directories or address books", then "Next >".
The list I saw was missing the Novell GroupWise Address Book, but still showed Novell LDAP Address Book and Novell Personal Address Book. I just clicked "Add...", selected "Additional Address Books", clicked "Next >".
At this point I got a list of available options, selected the Novell GroupWise Address Book and clicked "Next >".
The only other thing I found is that in my GroupWise Address Book, the order of the MAPI address books in the first list dictated the order of things in GroupWise. So I removed and re-added a couple different things to get just what I wanted.
Hope this can help someone. -
Office 2013 and Groupwise, Address book issues
Having issues with workstations running Win7 and Office 2013. If you open the mail settings under the control panel only the Outlook address book is listed. Frequent contacts doesn't populate either in Groupwise and no address books are listed as available. Any fixes for this? Groupwise 8 running on NW 6.5

We have the same problem, aparently is related with outlook. When we uninstalled office 2013, the adress book is listed and works properly. -
Sharing a Groupwise address book group
My user has created an address book with an number of address groups in it. The Book is shared as a read only share to a number of users. When ever a new name has been added to the shared address group the users who have been shared it do not see the new additions to the group.
Thanks for any help
VivHi,
Apologies for the slow response!
The issue that you are experiencing is a bug in GroupWise 8 - I would suggest an upgrade to SP3.
This type of issue is typically a corruption in the prime user database and should not have to be run each time there is a change - but please report back if it continues to be an issue.

Account options - Refresh address books / rules range
Hi Forum,
sometime I get (annoying) calls that there are old users on distribution lists which are already deleted. They get an error message if they send mails to that list...
So far I could always resolve that issue by simply refresh the system groupwise address book manually.
My question now is how I could reduce the mentioned refresh range in the account options to 1 day e.g. via C1 or some other way (default is 7).
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance :)
Cheers,
PascalHi Pascal,
Firstly double-check that nightly user upkeep is running on your post offices. This process removes deleted accounts from personal address books.
As far as changing the setting for a caching/remote mailbox to download address books every 1 day instead of the default of 7 days - I never found a way to automate this. We manage this manually. Fortunately for us, we the IT people, setup the caching mailbox for each user, so the process of changing this setting to 1 day is well documented.
Perhaps there's a registry key - but I'm not sure.
Cheers, -
Caching Mode, groups, address book
GroupWise 2014 SP HP1
Hi,
we experience problemes with groups in caching mode: while they show up
correct with members in online mode and in WebAccess, they are empty in
caching mode.
I tried "Refresh", "Retrieve GW Address Book" and "Retrieve Entire Mailbox"
on the client side.
And I tried "Rebuild indexes", "Rebuild Database" and "Generate Remote
Downloadable Address Book Now" on the server side.
I also waited a few days, in case some automatic process plays a role,
friday to monday - the problem is still here.
The groups I need are eDirectory associated and access is limited by Access
Control. But I also tested this with GW-only groups and without Access
Control.
Thanks,
MirkoHi Laura,
I forgot to mention that - I have also tried this. But I thought this
setting should not be important if I manually do a "Retrieve GroupWise
Address Book"?
I did some more testing
* changed my lastname in eDirectory
* sychronized my user in GW Admin Console -> General/Contact Information
gets updated
* "Generate Remote Downloadable Address Book Now" on my post office
* Client in caching mode:
** "Retrieve GroupWise Address Book"
** "Refresh"
-> Last Name gets successfully updated in GW Client in caching mode
-> Groups are still empty
So I think it's a problem only with groups, the process for updating address
book in caching mode in general seems to work.
Thanks,
Mirko

Middle initial to display in the address book.
In order to display a middle initial in the groupwise address book, we add the middle initial in the given name field. When conducting a new email the auto search/complete for the user is unavailable. any thoughts?

Is it possible that you have an extra space AFTER the middle initial? That
said, I've seen instances where extra spaces in general in the given name field
can cause auto-completion issues.

Address Book - Name Completion Search Order missing books
We have Groupwise 8.0.2 running on Netware 6.5 SP8
Problem: in the Address Book, the Name Completion Search Order shows different Available Books depending on the computer, but no computer has all the available books.
Computer 1: (the user's pc): Windows 7. The Available Books has only the Groupwise Address Book and the Frequent Contacts. It does not show the user's personal address book as being available, it is not even listed in the box.
Computer 2: Windows 7. The available books box is empty.
Computer 3: (my pc) Windows XP. Logging into Groupwise with the user's account, the available books box is empty (same as Computer 2), but when I go into my account, all 3 books are showing (Groupwise, Personal, and Frequent Contacts)Hi
like Laura said, there are different misc. support options for gwcheck:
PABCHANGEFIX
PABDELDUPREC
PABFIX
PABONLY
Do they correct anything if you run them
1. against the caching mailbox (if used)
2. against the online box?
IMHO there should be a "how to" when the users personal address book is missing/deleted and not just closed...
Just google a bit ;)

Groupwise Field Definitions for Address Book entry
Hi,
I am looking for Groupwise Field definitions i.e. Field Names associated with Address Book entry (Contact and Organization). I am using OAPI to access the Contact's field values and set the Contact's field values by Field Name. Is there any place which has the list of all the field Names associated with Contact and Organization Address Book entry.
Note: Field Definitions for Address Book entries that are in PAB.
I also look for the comparision of Field Names in Groupwise 7.0 and Groupwise 8.0.
Thanks,
PranavWhy don't you iterate through all the field definitions of a given abook?
This will give you the list of all possible fields for an entry.
