Hi,
when i will use LDAP contacts from AD i cant see any group contacts when
listing AD contact list (VLV used).
Im using 2000 mixed mode AD, tested with distubution and security groups,
email address is set correctly.

Any ideas how to get groups listed?

Regards, Martin Cervenka

Didn't you ask this question in another group?

Came across this in a Google search looking for how to get LDAP groups to show up in Outlook (using 2k3). I've tried distribution groups, and security groups and nothing will show up. I've also tried creating a groupOfNames object in Active Directory and that also does not show up. It seems as though Outlook is hard coded to do a (&(objectClass=user)...), but hopefully I'm wrong.

Brian, your two posts here have been no help whatsoever.

Dang. Hit send too soon.

Can you find them if you search using the other columns?

I can see groups in my AD along with the user accts if they were set up via
Exchange 2007. These are set up as DL - Universal by Exchange. DL's I
create directly in the AD won't display in the name view but I can find them
searching more columns. Users created in the AD will display in the LDAP AB.
So it looks like Exchange adds a property that just creating it in the AD
doesn't and Outlook needs that property to list the DLs with the users.

I'd check in AD or windows server forums to see if anyone knows how to get
the DLs to show in the address list.
