Even searching in the addressbook for people with "Name=*" does not return anything. And yes, the "Accounts" option contains correctly the name and basedn of my LDAP server.do not forget to enable the "simple search filter" then. kr, RafI am fighting with the "loglevel" option in slapd.conf, just to get a brief logging about what query the LDAP server received from outlook. Any help out there from the gurus ? Rob Belgium Eduardo Eirós wrote:Hi all I´m new in this list and I know this is a little bit off-topic, but maybe someone can help me. I currently have an openldap server offering services for smtp, pop, imap and ssh .OK I know that there has been disccusion about integrating openldap with outlook clients. I´m able to do searchs in outlook 2000 after some configuration changes and more. I´m able to import these searches results in the address book, and to look in ldap for the to: field Now the question: is there anyway to automatize this process so the client would not have to make searches in order to have new entries or modifications. I mean a plugin or something that would keep synchronized the outlook adddress book with the ldap entries. Maybe impossible? Sorry for my english and thanks.
