LDAP contacts

[bcochofel]

Hi,

I have configured contacts from an LDAP on Outlook and I want to know
if there's a way to list then auto at start?
I want to be able to see all the contacts when I start outlook, all
the contacts from my LDAP I mean.

Thanks,
Bruno

That is not how the LDAP protocol works - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Directory_Access_Protocol

The whole idea is to query an external source for contacts. If you want your contacts local, then LDAP is not the protocol you should be using.

I know that, but I was wondering if there's a way, when I bind to
LDAP, to do a search for all the contacts under the dn I've choose.
This way I could get the list automatically.
