Greetings.  I am new on the list.  My troubles are primarily in the LDAP 
area as I am currently involved in a reseach project involveing same.
I've heard that such questions are at least moderately welcomed here.
:-)

In particular, I am trying to set up a series of address books on my 
system.  1 that is global and 1 for each user.

Here are some reletively simple questions I am currently trying to answer:

1. What are the filters used by Mozilla/Netscape/Outlook?
2. How can I add an ldif record exported from Mozilla/Netscape to either 
ou=People or ou=AddressBk if the base is "dc=example,dc=net"?

Sample record:

> dn: cn=MyTestUser Smith,mail=Dude@spudly.com
> objectclass: top
> objectclass: person
> objectclass: organizationalPerson
> objectclass: inetOrgPerson
> givenName: MyTestUser
> sn: Smith
> cn: MyTestUser Smith
