[Phpgroupware-users] LDAP based address book

[Christian Rost]

Hi,

we are using Thunderbird and Outlook (Express) and connected their address 
books to our LDAP
directory and search for the "mail", "cn", ... attrributes of all user 
accounts. The user accounts
are stored under "ou=People" as proposed by the PADL Migration-Tools. For 
additional adresses, our
users maintain their own local address book.

Is there way to use the phpGW address book in the same way as we're using the 
Outlook/ Thunderbird
address book. That means, read only lookup to information stored in the LDAP 
tree under "ou=People"
and read/ write access to an private address book stored elsewhere within the 
LDAP tree or in MySQL
By doing it this way, we can still use the information attached to the 
user-profiles and don't have
to maintain a copy of these Informations.

Cheers,

Christian
