OK, I think I understand now. Using an LDAP connection I will *only* be able
to view data in the LDAP directory, and using a CardDAV connection I will
*only* be able to view data in the SOGo SQL database... is that correct?

What I'm trying to do is create a single company-wide contact list that
people can add contacts to as needed. The CardDAV connection is perfect,
because I can create one account (i.e. "public-contacts") and have all
computers linked to it, so people can drag and drop vcards into the
database. The only issue is the older computers which can't connect that
way.

Am I correct that I cannot mix connection types and still access the same
data?

Thanks again!
