Thanks for that, I was unable to download as quick as I needed the CD's so I
have just purchased the Mandrake 10.0 Powerpack + and did a server install
chose the "Kolab" server option and it worked 100% so far. And I have 8CD's
1 DVD & 2 manuals.
(After approx 6 weeks, 5 disto's and over 40 install's of hell the cost was
worth it, so was the 3 hours to go and get the pack)

By the way, Do you know where the ldap data is stored in the Mandrake
version  as I now need to setup a backup routine !

Denis
