Hi, >Do you think there would be any interest in a softphone that supports >LDAP ? > why not? You can use ldap commands to connect to Domino and MS ADS, so a softphone with ldap capabilities sounds like quite a good idea to me.

[Asterisk-Users] Softphone with Lotus Notes support?
Hi, has anyone of you heard of a softphone or client that support Lotus Notes? I just want to click on the telephone number of an account and my hard- or softphone should get the call. Something similar to the outlook clients from Thirdlane (http://www.thirdlane.com/opensource.htm#dialer) or EyePMedia (http://www.eyepmedia.com/) Thanks for any suggestions, Stefan -- in-put GbR - Das Linux-Systemhaus Stefan-Michael Guenther Moltkestrasse 49 D-76133 Karlsruhe Tel./Fax : +49 (0)721 / 83044 - 98/93 http://www.in-put.de Schulungen Installationen Beratung Support ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
