Re: [SOGo] Shared LDAP adressbook CardDav for Mac OS X 10.7.3
Hello Christian Mack, I did open a request at the sogo bug tracking system, but there answer was: (0004013) Christian Mack (developer) - 2012-06-04 08:49 http://www.sogo.nu/bugs/view.php?id=1826#c4013 -- That is an Apple Address Book restriction, not a SOGo one. It only synchronizes one address book via CardDAV, namely the first one. Please complain at Apples Support. There is nothing Inverse can do about it. So, I doubt they would make something about it. I was thinking of possibility to merge all addressbooks into the server answer for personal request, but this would make a mess when changing some info for one record - server would need to guess, either it is a new personal record, or it is some record from LDAP and should be ignored. My opinion is to make a virtual server for each addressbook on different port, and use url rewriting somehow to specify the needed addressbook, cause Mac OS X alway asks for dav/user/*personal*/ - I just need to change this personal to a name of my LDAP addressbook. But this is not yet achieved, I will try to find some time to sit with a sniffer to analyze their dialog and find where my mistake is. 04.06.2012 18:44, Christian Mack написал: Christian Mack -- С уважением, Момот Павел.

Hello Martin Seener As you see a use case for this functionality, then you should open a feature request at http://www.sogo.nu/bugs for it.

I am not from Inverse, but... Apple Address Book on Mac OS only accesses the first (= personal) address book via CardDAV. You can not change this, without changing Apple Address Book. There is nothing Inverse/SOGo can do about it. So complain at Apples Support. The only work around you can use is to add the personal address book via CardDAV and to add the global address book via LDAP protocol. But for this to work, you have to make your LDAP reachable and viewable at least by all Apple users. For us this would be too insecure, as we would have to open our LDAP server for the whole university. Also the data protection laws in germany forbid us to make these personal information viewable by everyone, which would be the case via the LDAP protocoll. >> -- Christian Mack Gruppe Informationsdienste Rechenzentrum Universität Konstanz -- users@sogo.nu https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists

Because of this, our users would combine their personal address book with the global one. This would result in a full synchronisation of all addresses (in our case 14000+) for each Apple Address Book user. And this would also break data protection laws here in germany, as I said before (see LDAP).

Re: [SOGo] Shared LDAP adressbook CardDav for Mac OS X 10.7.3
Hi Christian, maybe there is a workaround for Inverse. What about adding a new Option in the config "SOGoAggregateAddressBooks" which concatenates one or more address books to the "Personal" One. So when Apples AB gets the Personal AB it gets the concatenated one!?

Re: [SOGo] Shared LDAP adressbook CardDav for Mac OS X 10.7.3
Hi, we have the same "issue" here. i believe to saw that OS X Address Book is "enterprise" oriented therefore only uses first (private) address book. we managed to have the shared one instead by modifiying the accounts .plist file - but its not a good reliable solution. Hope that one of Inverse Teams Member can say more about and if theres a "workaround" for OSX AB.
