We have no resolution at this point because we have been very busy with other problems and we are working around by bringing what we need down to NT local. MS says they have a fix but I beleive that it will include moving to the latest Intranetware Novell and I'm not sure Our IS department is ready for that. If you find an answer please let me know.

We also ran into the same problem and have been awaiting an fix or workaround from Microsoft for a few weeks now. Apparently they don't have one yet.
