3815.0. "Reverse Lookup Addresses And Edit Profile" by ZUR01::WORK19::BURKHALTER (Rolf Burkhalter @RLE) Wed Jan 26 1994 15:43

Hi

ALL-IN-1 V3.0A

I have several reverse lookup addresses defined in my DDS entry, for 
example:

        Master copy owning node         : ZUR01
        MHS/VMS address number          : 1
                MHS/VMS address part    : ZUR01
                MHS mailbox             : AM
                MHS User identifier     : BURKHALTER
        MHS/VMS address number          : 2
                MHS/VMS address part    : ZUR01
                MHS mailbox             : A1
                MHS User identifier     : BURKHALTER
        MHS/VMS address number          : 3
                MHS/VMS address part    : PCSA01
                MHS mailbox             : AM
                MHS User identifier     : BURKHALTER

If I now edit my profile entry in MGT MUA (for example change the initial 
field), and then check my DDS entry in MBMAN, the changes are made, but the 
ALL-IN-1 lookup address will be written to the first reverse lookup 
address and not the one it was before (2nd). My DDS entry in MBMAN looks 
then:

        Master copy owning node         : ZUR01
        MHS/VMS address number          : 1
                MHS/VMS address part    : ZUR01         <
                MHS mailbox             : A1            < <---
                MHS User identifier     : BURKHALTER    <
        MHS/VMS address number          : 2
                MHS/VMS address part    : ZUR01
                MHS mailbox             : A1
                MHS User identifier     : BURKHALTER
        MHS/VMS address number          : 3
                MHS/VMS address part    : PCSA01
                MHS mailbox             : AM
                MHS User identifier     : BURKHALTER

As you can see I now have two entries for the A1 mailbox, but my AM mailbox 
entry has been overwritten.

Is this a known problem and how can I prevent ALL-IN-1 from writting the 
reverse lookup address for ALL-IN-1 to MHS/VMS address number 1?

Any help will be appreciated

Rolf

	Rolf, I think it has worked this way since ALL-IN-1 v2.3 was released in 1989. It was in the v2.3 release notes but what happened after that I don't remember. Regards, Andrew.D.Wicks
3815.2	Used to update 2nd but that was a bug	IOSG::COTTINGHAM		`Wed Jan 26 1994 18:22`	8
	Rolf, I remeber a bug in V2.3 or V2.4 where multiple Reverse Lookups caused ALL-IN-1 to incorrectly update the 2nd entry. It should and now will always update the 1st ORADDR Regards Alan
