Re: [Evolution] editing LDAP entries

[Amith Varghese <amithv yahoo com>]

Adding 

access to dn="cn=subschema"
        by * read

to my slapd.conf worked great for me.  I can now edit most of the fields
within the Card.  

Now my last question is when I want to add contacts to the LDAP Address
Book do I need to support evolutionperson in my slapd.conf?  Because
currently if I try to add an entry it fails.

Thanks
