Kolab + Active Directory

[Shaw, Brian]

I believe the reason Kolab uses a dedicated LDAP server is because it 
has a custom schema and using private resources makes life easier when 
you are distributing systems.

That said, you should be able to convert the custom schema file from the 
389-ds format to the AD format.  (You should be able to find a pre-made 
script to do the conversion).  Then you just load the schema file into 
AD and update your Kolab LDAP settings to point to your AD server.

I've not tried this with AD so your mileage may vary but, I have done it 
with other systems and it works reasonably well.
