Thanks Josh. 

Right now we create pseudo-userids in our LDAP directory for just about any 
directory entry users want, e.g. College of Arts, so they can find the 
extension easily. This extends to many, many non user based entries. This 
allows us to have a many to one relationship directory entries to extensions. 
This is what we use as our public facing telephone directory. 

Unless there is another directory search option available with jabber (over 
expressway), it means that only those users that are imported via AD into CUCM 
will be searchable. 

In our current deployment, only a subset of LDAP entries are populated into AD. 
So we wouldn't get the correct results. 

Question: when it does return results, does it return the telephone number in 
the user's AD profile? Or does it use the primary extension configured?
