Some experiences when using the snapshot build yesterday and a plain openldap server as of Fedora core 3 (without evolution support) - The LDAP plugin crashes when testing for evolution features. I enclose the quick and dirty fix I did to handle the crash. (which occured if/when ldap_getValues() returns 0 at line 178). - I don't use TLS/SSL. If the plugin is configured to use TLS "If available" it doesn't work, refuses to make even an anonymous bind. If configured to "Never" use TLS it works, though. I would say it's a bug. Works like a charm otherwise. Nice job, but the installation could have been easier :-) --michael -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Kolmodin Rådstugatan 15 B Phone: +46 920 230383 S-972 38 Luleaa.
