Re: Profile Clone API -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

The new user must have a unique UID, and since the UID can be a GID clearly there can only be one of those too. Most profiles are not members of a GID ( It's normally *NONE) since that does not help with IBM i security.

That's were the "clone" part falls apart. If this user profile is using NFS or some of the other "*NIX" servers then the UID/GID have to be correct and/or unique.

Tried that, blows off on a duplicate GID.
