# DisableGroupFromDNSearch

A Boolean value that specifies whether to prevent OmniGroupServer from trying to retrieve groups for unrecognized distinguished names that are retrieved from group attributes.

Normally the KeyMember attributes of a group contain the distinguished names of the users and groups who are members of the group. To prevent OmniGroupServer from trying to retrieve information for unrecognized distinguished names, set this parameter to `true`.

If you set this parameter to `false`, OmniGroupServer attempts to retrieve information for unknown groups. This could include cases where:

- The group name does not match the GroupFilter.
- The group no longer exists.
- The KeyMember attribute is invalid.
- The initial group search has been disabled by DisableInitialGroupSearch.

When setting this parameter consider the value of DisableInitialGroupSearch. In most cases you should not set `DisableInitialGroupSearch=TRUE` in combination with `DisableGroupFromDNSearch=TRUE`.
