I saw what I will consider bug in the LDAP setup screen. For example,
when I go to edit my LDAP server on the advance page the ONE is always
selected even if I select Sub and save.
Also, How do I unbind from a server ? I am testing different settings
(for example authentication) but need to get out of evolution, and
killev in most case, to be able to close my connection to my ldap
server.Also I have experienced few freezes when closing evolution.
What about adding an option to get all records from a LDAP server loaded
when binding if one knows that the address book is fairly small. Will
act more like the contact folder.
If I don't want to use the contact folder in the local folder, how can I
replace it with an LDAP folder or can't I ?
Thanks
