Good news, I was able to get Evolution 2.8.1 on Ubuntu Edgy 6.10
configured and working with the LDAP address book for my tuffmail.com

Am curious if there's any way to configure Evolution to display all the
contacts from an LDAP address book by default.  (*without* having to
enter a search query).  
It was a conscious decision not to have all the contacts from an LDAP
addressbook 
show up by default, owing to performance reasons. This is not a
configurable option, atleast for the time being.  (The above does not
apply to your personal addressbook on the file system).


Or maybe there is a simple search query that will show all entries?


Also, according to the Evolution User Guide, " If you change any LDAP
address book configurations, Evolution and the Evolution Data Server
need to be restarted in order to see the changes."  

Anyone know how to kick over the evolution-data-server?  I tried sending
a kill HUP to the data server process, which I believe is the one pasted
below...

$ evolution --force-shutdown 

ensures that the e-d-s process is shutdown. Starting Evolution again,
would start e-d-s in the background.

HTH,
