gpilot sync works with local contacts, but not with LDAP contacts (Evolution 2.6.1)

[Michael Jastram <micky alum mit edu>]

Hello Group,

I am stuck and wondering wether anybody can at least give me pointer for
troubleshooting.  I am using Evolution 2.6.1 (Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper) with a
Tungsten T and an openldap directory for addresses.  The LDAP directory
works fine.  Syncing the Tungsten works fine, but only if I sync against
the local address book.  As soon as I pick the LDAP directory (by
changing the EAddress conduit), the sync hangs during the address book sync.

I tried to change the openldap settings - including setting it to
writable for anynomous.  I tried to sync only in one direction.  Nothing
worked - the system always hangs during the "EAddress" sync.

Also, never is an address changed - neither on the Tungsten, nor in the
LDAP directory.  On the openldap, I see no trace of attempted
evolution/gpilotd communication in the logs.

And syncing is definitely not the problem - The syncing starts as
normal, and as soon as I change back to the local address book, the sync
runs through all the way.

So I have three questions:

    * Is anybody successfully syncing against an LDAP directory with
      gpilotd in the first place?
    * Can anybody give me pointers on where to start troubleshooting,
      e.g. where could I find logs of the attempted LDAP communication?
    * And last, does anybody know how to solve this problem?

Thanks a lot!

Michael
