Outlook 2003 LDAP Address Book Configuration

Posted on May 9, 2006 by macrae

I have been playing arround to configure LDAP Address Book on Outlook 2003 againts Sun Java Directory Server.

Here step by step to configure:

  1. Open Tools -> E-mail Accounts -> Add a new directory or … -> Internet Directory Service (LDAP)
  2. Put the server name and click More Settings… button
  3. Rename display name (optional)
  4. Click Search tab
  5. Put Search base: ou=People,o=domain, o=isp 

PS: If your Directory Server requires authentication so put your user name as uid=username,ou=People,o=domain,o=isp and your password as well.

Have a nice shoot…!

    In your case, it would be automatically integrated. In my case, I use different mail server.

    I have been configuring LDAP on thunderbird using the Base DN and Bind DN and it all went good. I have been able to view all the persons on the contacts. But recently as there are still a few people who are using Outlook I needed to configure their Ldap. the problem is that in the Ldap only a few people is being displayed in the Ldap list. I have practically use the same configuration as in thunderbird. Could you please help me to carry it out.

    Regards,

    Hello,

    My Windows2003 Server use Active Directory and I have configured an Outlook 2003 address book using LDAP as source of email address.

    How can I configure dynamic Distribution List? This is, if LDAP changes, also may do the distribution list?

    Kind Regards from Spain,
