unable to modify or create new RDP bookmark with dynamic user attribute

A few months ago, I created a bookmark to link specific users to their PC. I have a login script that updates a person's <userAttr.ipPhone> field to contain the hostname of their PC. The bookmark works well, but I wanted to enable Applet access.

My PC

HOST : <userAttr.ipPhone>

SERVER PORT : 3389

I get the error message

Failed to save resource profile 'My PC'

Reason: You have entered an invalid host

Even if I make NO changes, I still can't update the bookmark.

I tried to create a new resource and bookmark, but I still get the same "Invalid Host" error.

This is on a 4500 with 6.5R1 (build 14599). I have a clustered pair of 2500s, but I'm unable to create a similar resource and bookmark on them as well. On the clustered pair, I wanted to create a dynamic bookmark with a hostName matching <userAttr.givenName>.

My attributes are available and selected from the LDAP data catalog.

This problem is specific to 6.5R1.

It works in previous IVE release (6.4) and was fixed in 6.5R2

IVE OS 6.5R2 Release Notes:
