Are you the only OS/2 station on campus, Phil?

I managed to connect to my server and run an LDAP query from Mozilla last night, though I was only successful in searching on email addresses. When one was found, I could open the record and read the FirstName & LastName fields, but I couldn't get the FullName to display nor any other pertinent data (postal address, telephone, etc.). In contrast, over the wire, connected to a client's site last evening (also running NetWare 6 SP2), I was able to run a query from Outlook and saw the entire record. My server? Mozilla? (Netscape 4.79 on 2000 over here had the same result, as did 4.61 on OS/2...)

Phil, are you running LDAP services on the server(s) now? I'd be really interested to hear how this works for you, as I'm thinking of implementing LDAP on a couple client sites. It would be nice to know in advance whether we have sufficiently robust tools under OS/2 to access this data.
   


We have started running LDAP services after recent upgrades. I have
been looking it it to transfer  the automated tasks from my old dependable Warp 4 system using the IPX client because the
University is planning to phase out IPX in the near future.

I  have managed to extract the data I'm looking for but haven't progressed
much beyond proving it can be done.
 

Over here, when I need to drop to Windows to do something, I usually use a Citrix session. I've had some stability problems with my VPC setups recently, so I've pretty much put that on a back burner.
   


The University of a Windows dominant site in which I am tolerated using
OS/2 (ECS) getting the University to pay for anything (like citrix)  is a none starter at the moment, not only due to people objecting, but also because the (human) purchasing system here is so antiquated that It will
only allow purchases from known suppliers who have past through
various checks etc.. & getting this sorted out just isn't worth the effort so
I am limited to what I am prepared (can afford) to buy myself.
