Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Thomas M Goerger <>]

Hi,

I'm having an issue with changing the underlying name that Grouper is
using to identify a user.  We have an attribute called OfficialName that
we want to use as the unique identifier in Grouper.  Changing this value,
as might happen if someone has a legal name change, seems to be
problematic for Grouper.  It recognizes the change if you do another
search, but if you try to list members in a group where one of the names
has been changed, Grouper spits back a Runtime Exception.

Anyone else dealt with this at all?  How do you deal with a changing id in
your implementation?

Thanks,
