Outlook cannot read kolab global address book?

[Albrecht Dreß]

Hi,

while testing the Konsec connector for M$ Outlook in connection with kolab 2.2,
I ran into a problem with Outlook 2003SP2 on a Win2kSP4 box which seems to be
more ldap/kolab related than to the connector.

The problem is that the global address book in Outlook, taken from ldap with a
proper base dn, is just empty.  I sniffed the traffic in wireshark, which might
help to resolve the problem.  After a successful anonymous bind, Outlook asks:

<snip>
Lightweight-Directory-Access-Protocol
  LDAPMessage searchRequest(2) "<ROOT>" baseObject
    messageID: 2
    protocolOp: searchRequest (3)
      searchRequest
        baseObject:
        scope: baseObject (0)
        derefAliases: neverDerefAliases (0)
        sizeLimit: 0
        timeLimit: 0
        typesOnly: False
        Filter: (objectclass=*)
          filter: present (7)
            present: objectclass
        attributes: 3 items
          Item: objectClass
          Item: supportedControl
          Item: supportedCapabilities
</snip>

and gets as reply two packets from the Kolab LDAP server

</snip>

followed by

<snip>

    messageID: 2
    protocolOp: searchResDone (5)
      searchResDone
        resultCode: success (0)
        matchedDN:
        errorMessage:
</snip>

Apparently being unhappy with the response, Outlook then unbinds and shuts down
the connection.  Any idea what goes wrong here?  I *can* see all the public data
in LDAP using a simple LDAP viewer on the same box.

Any help would be really appreciated!

Thanks, Albrecht.
