Connect to Lotus Notes Address Book?

[kiwicmc]

Has anyone attempted to connect Zimbra to a Lotus Notes server address book? There seems to be LDAP connectivity provided by Notes to it's public address book so you would hope it would work.

Anyone tried?

Yes I did in order to have all my existing contacts available from Zimbra.

You need to configure your GAL with an external (or Both) LDAP directory, and in the search string you type : (|(mail=*%s*)(cn=*%s*)(sn=%s*)(gn=%s*))

in the LDAP tree location search, type the OU from which you want to search for your contacts ex O=ACME,C=FR.

In the LDAP authentication, enter the name of the user able to access to the names.nsf, and his password.
For the test, enter the firstname to try, but it's case sensitive (for me Franck works, not franck !).

Hope this helps

I did tried the above ! what i can get is the address to look up for the client !
but it never uses the extenal ldap configured for mail routing ! if some one will throw light on that that will be of great help
and using one single directory on notes will be much easier
thanks in advance
