hi all,
i was diddling with such a requirement a while back, and found rolodap
(http://rolodap.sourceforge.net). it has a web interface to an address
book stored in ldap.
it has been a while since, but I seem to remember that window's
implementation of a real lookup/ldap client made it difficult to deploy.
for example, having the contacts populated from the ldap server. i'd be
curious if how ximian would work with it ... i have not tried yet.
I used ldap-abook to update LDAP entries for Windows clients. Outlook98's LDAP support was flaky in the Corporate Mail configuration. In the Internet configuration, and in later versions of Outlook, it works pretty good. Outlook Express from that same time period (version 4?) had pretty decent support for LDAP too.
Even so, I ended up using a custom web interface that basically dumped the entire entry into an HTML textbox so I could update and add arbitrary attributes. It was easier than living within the confines of any something like ldap-abook. At the time, rolodap was not far enough along to be useful.
These days I use GQ <http://biot.com/gq/>.
