Can you have an LDAP addressbook online: Yes Can TB access an on-line LDAP addressbook: Yes Here's where your problem is going to be. You are going to need a server with an LDAP service installed on it which either allows you to own a particular OU (Organizational Unit) with a login and password. or you're going to have to install an LDAP server on a server you own. To date, I don't recall any free services out there providing LDAP services, but I never really looked either. If there aren't any, you're going to have to do it yourself. Now, your bigger problem lies in the fact that TB doesn't have the capability to update or create new LDAP entries. It reads existing ones just fine, but if you want to do anything else you'll need an additional piece of software which can do updates and inserts. I've CC'd this response to TBOT so we can pick up the conversation there if you'd like to delve into it a bit more. R> Well, i hope i didn't hurt the list's rules now... The occasional SOT is expected just long as we continue it on TBOT we'll be good! <grin> -- __ ____ ____ ____ TBUDL/BETA/DEV/TECH Lists Moderator / PGP 0x6C0AB16B ( ) ( ___)(_ _)( ___) TBUDP Wiki Site: http://www.PCWize.com/thebat/tbudp )(__ )__) _)(_ )__) Roguemoticons: http://PCWize.com/thebat (____)(____)(____)(__) PCWSmileys: http://PCWize.com/thebat/pcwsmileys.php Tagline of the day: Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental. ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.5 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
