Problems with enterprise Kontact and LDAP lookup

[Thomas Ribbrock]

Hi all,

I'm currently experimenting with the "enterprise" Kontact client (744693 right 
now, on Kubuntu 7.10). I've used the kolabwizard to set up all accounts, but 
I'm still having problems with LDAP lookups. Whenever I try to do so 
in "Contacts", I get:

LDAP server returned the error: Invalid DN syntax 
Additional info: invalid DN
The LDAP URL was: ldap://SERVER:389

When I look at "Settings -> Configure Address Book -> LDAP Lookup", I 
have "Security" to "No" and "Authentication" to "Simple" (I cannot get any 
SSL/TLS to work *at all* - I'm getting "certificate errors"). "User" has the 
correct user, "Bind DN" and "Realm" are empty and greyed out, I leave the 
password empty (and supply it on demand) and "Host" is set to the correct 
server. "Port" is 389 as expected, "LDAP version" = "3", Size and time limit 
are default and the DN is set to "dc=DOM,dc=AIN" when I do "Query Server".
As far as I can see these settings are the same as for the proko2 (2.1.12) 
client I use with the same server.

I have no idea why this doesn't work - any suggestion welcome... :-}

Cheerio,

Thomas
