Here is a problem that I've been facing for a while too ;-( |
5 |
|
6 |
Adding an LDAP server in Thunderbird, basically all Mozilla releases |
7 |
from 1.x.x. and up were giving the same result ..You add the LDAP server |
8 |
and it will not show up in the end.No errors or anything .. |
9 |
In my case the LDAP server in question is, Netscape's / Sun Iplanet.. |
10 |
|
11 |
I tested on different machines with different versions of X and window |
12 |
managers...all on gentoo..same result.. |
13 |
|
14 |
I ended up using Netscape 7.2 which did work .. |
15 |
|
16 |
Now I've recently installed the thunderbird-bin package from portage and |
17 |
guess what .. IT WORKS !!! |
18 |
|
19 |
I tried the source package ..and no luck.,..You would start to think |
20 |
that it is not compiled in building from source on gentoo. |
21 |
I did'nt look into it in detail though , so can't really make a |
22 |
statement on that.. |
23 |
|
24 |
Just my experience with LDAP / Mozilla... |
