LDAP distribution lists

Christopher Hicks

We've successfully gotten Outlook talking to our OpenLDAP server running on
the latest official fedora core 1 rpm of slapd. There's only one major
problem though: Outlooks sees groups we created, but no addresses are
associated with those groups. Any ideas? I've included below an LDIF dump
of the
group we created that was visible and the records pointed to which didn't
show up in Outlook.

There are two ways of constructing a software design. One way is to make it
so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other way is to
make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies.
