LDAP and Organization Unit

[Anonymous]

HI There

I’ve had some success in getting LDAP services to address book, I have installed phpladadmin, addressbooktoldap and they work fine to move/edit the entries. However I can only search for entries using thier Name, not thier Company Name. Ideally in Apple Mail or Entourage if a user searched for example they’d get list of all the people at example corp.

I am currently using:

cn=people,dc=expample,dc=co,dc=uk

I believe I have to add an Organization object or maybe an Organizational Unit and then move my address book entries to it then change my search dn.

Is there anybody out there how could give a few tips.

I”ve successfully used the following mappings with address book:

givenName (firstname)
sn (lastname)
title (job title)
o (company/college name)
telephoneNumber
mobile
facsimileTelephoneNumber
mail
street
l (city)
st (state)
postalCode (zip)
‘c’ (country)

Here’s some standard RFC mappings that I’ve tried that don’t work or aren’t used:

cn (full name)
ou (department?)
description
physicalDeliveryOfficeName
houseIdentifier
homePhone
organizationalStatus
displayName
employeeType

Apple’s Open Directory documentation, Appendix A, says the following should work, but they don’t:

postalAddress
pager
departmentNumber
buildingName

I’ve had no luck in finding something that will display department, mailstop, or physical building and room number location in Address Book.
