Coincidentally, also using Novell eDirectory. Perhaps Novell is unique in returning roles with null attributes? I have a user, it belonged to a group called intranet. I was able to authenticate an application using this role. Then my Novell admin added the user to a new group, and I started getting the NPE. Turns out the second group I was added to returns null attributes. I got around the NPE a while back by adding that null check, but I think the right thing to do is to modify the addAttributeValues method to return the original "values" argument that was passed to the method. In my case, the null values on the second role returned in my SearchResults were causing the whole list to be nullified, and I couldn't authenticate even though the intranet role was found. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
