Sure. As you have indicated, it is no problem at all. Say you have an exchange server with ldap enabled and the exchange organization is "MyCompany".
Tell you unix guys to use "o=MyCompany" to access the global address list. That's the letter "o", as in "o"rganization. Terry Beavers USF IT/TAA -----Original Message----- From: Bibel, Laura Y.

I mean, we're doing it here. We're currently using LDAP to query information in the Exchange 5.5 directory and using it to populate AD. Things like phone number, address, etc. The LDAP query uses the distinguished name properties like organization (/o), site (/ou) and container (/cn). Maybe I don't understand the question.

It is a View of the objects in the entire Directory. You can't get at it from LDAP, at least not as a single object. Kevin -----Original Message----- From: Jim Holmgren [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 12 November 2001 15:27 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: LDAP question One of our Unix guys is working on interfacing from a Unix system to our Exchange 5.5 LDAP directory. The documentation he is working from specifies that he needs the "container name" for our Global Address List. I've done a little searching, and I cannot find this information. Does anyone know the default container name for the global address list? Is it Global_Address_List, or something similar? Thanks!
