Thanks for the explanation - that's much appreciated. It mightn't hurt to add something to that effect to the two bugs I cited, in case others are looking into this in future. It does sound like quite a bit of work for something that's likely to be a less-used feature (especially as Evolution's compatibility with dedicated groupware servers grows). > If you've installed the evolutionperson.schema, you'll have write access > to the "File As" field, and can set it to be whatever you want. Indeed; I just spotted that in one of the bug reports. This could do with being noted in the documentation, along with the read-only correction. Something like "To improve the support for LDAP addressbooks, your admin will need to install the evolutionperson.schema file into the LDAP server." with a how-to like "With OpenLDAP, installing the evolutionperson.schema is quite simple. In your LDAP configuration directory - probably /etc/ldap or /etc/openldap - you'll find a subdirectory called 'schema'. Copy the file to there. Now, open slapd.conf and add an entry at the top like this: include /etc/ldap/schema/evolutionperson.schema and restart slapd. If you have other servers acting as replicas for this one, you should probably install the schema on them as well.
