[gentoo-user] Thunderbird and lcoal LDAP server

[Abraham Marín Pérez]

Hi everyone:

    I recently had some problems sharing my contacts with more than one 
mail client, so I decided to run a local LDAP server. I emerged OpenLDAP 
and checked it with phpLDAPadmin. I can browse server's database and 
add/remove/modify contacts with phpLDAPadmin, but I can't connect to it 
with a mail application; I tried both Evolution and Thunderbird and I 
got nothing.

    The one I care the most is Thunderbird. I tried to add a link to the 
server from the Address Book: FILE -> NEW -> LDAP DIRECTORY; I typed 
what I think is the right parameters and tried, but nothing happened. Am 
I doing anything wrong?

Thanks,
Abraham
