Scott, Hello, what should my ldap.conf file look like? I am able to connect to my work ldap (so it seems), but I am not able to actually perform a search (well I can perform one, just no results). I tried typing ldapsearch -x within shell and nothing, also tried ldapsearch my.server.name.here -x, with no results. This is about the only thing that I have not been able to figure out so far within evolution.

I had similar problems with evolution connecting to an LDAP server, but it was incorrect settings in my ldap.conf file. Once I figured them out, I was able to connect much better.

Iam running 2.4.1 and when I set mine up it did the same thing to meover and over again. I had to reboot twice after the intial setup and then the error wentaway. My problem is now it appears to connect, however when I do a search fora name in the ldap contact list I get no information displayed and thesearch takes less than a second to complete, and the company has around3,000 email addresses. Try rebooting, if this does not work the first time, delete and re-setthe ldap, then on the addess book properties window ==> display tab==> click on find possible search bases, if that returns informationselect it (means that you are at the least talking to the ldap server(and this is far as I have been able to get with mine)).

Afterentering the LDAP server info in the Address Book Properties, I get anuninformative error telling me: "Error Loading Address Book: We were unable to open this addressbook.This either means you have entered an incorrect URI, or the LDAP serveris unreachable." Any hints on how I can troubleshoot this issue?
