that's strange, you should be able to connect just fine (and even edit
cards if you've authenticated) with a server that doesn't have the
evolutionperson schema loaded, although the fields available for
editting changes with what schemas you have loaded.

Ahh, this is probably because you only loaded the evolutionperson
schema, and so only the fields defined in that schema are available.
Not many people have actually tried getting the writable/schema stuff
going, so there hasn't been much talk about it on the lists. Here's the
include directives from my slapd.conf file:
include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema
include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema
I normally don't have the evolutionperson schema loaded, mainly because
I wanted to make sure the writable support worked without it. But those
3 lines, plus the include of evolutionperson.schema should get all
fields that we can store enabled for you.
Lemme know if you have any other problems.
