[Fedora-directory-users] What next?

[Chris Curran]

Rich,

Tbird logging into FDS? What does that mean?


I have a LDAP server setup in my Tbird Address Book. To test the connection, 
in Tbird addr book I choose the 'Offline' tab then 'Download Now'. It asks 
me for a username and password - I enter them and at that point I'm back 
where I began in Tbird. I check the log files in FDS (access) and there are 
a number of entries - all those beginning with "RESULT" have "err=0". 
Therefore, I conclude that I am logging into FDS without error.

 >From what system? From OpenLDAP?


>From FDS.

Can you tell me how to reproduce this error?


Choose the 'Export' option on the 'Tasks' tab. Any permutation that I tried 
resulted in the same error (userroot).

Uhh... Tbird/Mozilla Mail has been around for a number of years and 
certainly can't be called "new". I don't know about other vendors; this is 
the first Directory Server I have evaluated (although the Sun salesperson I 
spoke to told me they support Tbird - how I don't know - we'll find out next 
week).

thanks,
Chris Curran
