Yes, openldap-software list is heavily moderated by Kurt and must be specific questions about OpenLDAP software itself, not integration. Their 'technical' list however, is open. http://www.openldap.org/lists/mm/listinfo/openldap-technical Also, traditionally, the ldap-umich list is used for integration questions (sorry, cannot provide URL but find listserv mich.edu) Outlook is wired to support Microsoft's AD vision and just like their support for imap sucks, you get lousy support for DSA's other than those created for Exchange/AD. Big surprise. Microsoft deliberately cripples the behavior of Outlook because they don't want to provide the free client that people uses with other servers. OK - I guess I sort of did get into my feelings about Outlook - my bad. For what it's worth, this is a rather ancient link on creating hybrid support for Outlook/Netscape... http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialLDAP-GILSchemaExtension.html Undoubtedly, many things have changed but it's a clue...but the stout recommendation is just to ditch Outlook and you won't be repairing damaged PST's down the line.
