Probably yes :-\ You submitted an issue for this, but neither from the issue nor from this mail here I get whether it ever worked for you ...? That is, we upgraded the underlying code which provides LDAP access in m53 (IIRC), and if this is the version where it stopped working for you, than that's a regression in that code (SeaMonkey 1.1x, as opposed to stone-aged Mozilla 1.7.x), or in the way how we use it. Perhaps this issue is a good chance to get rid of the LDAP-via-Mozilla implementation, and write a dedicated LDAP driver, which directly uses OpenLDAP or some such ... (desired for years, not implemented for the same time) Ciao Frank -- - Frank Schönheit, Software Engineer frank.schoenh...@sun.com - - Sun Microsystems http://www.sun.com/staroffice - - OpenOffice.org Base http://dba.openoffice.org - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@dba.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@dba.openoffice.org
