Setting proxy access rights if proxied to another account

[frma55]

Hi, i have the following problem:
i like to get a list of setup proxy users, add/remove proxy users and set/remove proxy access rights for this users. This works fine for the root account (with the groupwise account object) with the AccountRightsCollection.

But this does not work if i proxied to another account (manual in the groupwise client) and then start my formativ script. In that case the AccountRightsCollection give me only one AccountRights object with the rights the root account has to the proxied account.
I tried to use the client account object, but there are the same limitations. I tried to proxy to that user with GroupWise.Account.parent.proxy(UserID), but also the same limitations.

How is it possible in case of proxied to another account to get a full list of the setup proxy users for the proxied account and change this list or the proxy rights of that users?? This is also possible manually in groupwise client and so it should also go with formativ, or isn’t it so??

Thanks,
HERBY

Use the Client.clientstate.currentaccount to access the active GroupWise account. You can manually proxied to another account or use the proxy() method prior to access the currentaccount. GroupWise.account will gives you access to the root account.

See the example below:

  
  dim oGWAccount

  set oGWAccount = Client.clientstate.currentaccount
  msgbox "AccountRightsCollection: " & oGWAccount.AccountRights.Count

  set oGWAccount = nothing

Hope this helps.

The problem with that methode is, that if i proxied to another user and start my script, i dont’t get the AccountRightsCollection set of all users, which have proxy access to that user.

It will return only one AccountRights object with the rights the root account has to the proxied account.

Not sure about any Object API limitation when proxied to another account. You can post GroupWise Object API related questions into the following forum:
http://groups.google.com.au/group/novell.devsup.gwobjapi?hl=en

Have you looked at our Enterprise Proxy (http://www.advansyscorp.com/formativ_sol_enterprise_proxy.htm) which allows you to manage proxy access rights?

Hope this helps.

The Object API limitation works as documented – so this is no question.

The Enterprise Proxy sounds good, but is not exactly this, what i’m searching for.

I try to solve my problem with a trusted application.
