Tanya:

Thank you for the report.   This is a known issue with the design of 
Network Identity Manager version 1.3.x and not with version 2.0. 
Network Identity Manager v 2.0 is available from
http://www.secure-endpoints.com/netidmgr/v2/ and will begin to be
distributed by Stanford University over the Summer.

If you have further questions, please direct them to
netidmgr at secure-endpoints.com.
