Grr!  Frustration!,

Man, something is just *WRONG* here.  Now I know that LDAP can be used 
for a lot of stuff but my understanding is that the two most common uses 
are as an athentication system and as an address book.  The schemas for 
doing this should have been included in the distrobution.  A few extra 
text files.  I really don't think it would have been to much to ask.

netscapeCommunicator-[versionrange].schema
mozilla-[versionrange].schema
outlook-[versionrange].schema
universalAddressbook.schema
genericAddressbook.schema

or some such.  They wouldn't even have had to have been standardized. 
Just something provided that one *can* use if one wants to.  What I've 
got right now looks like nothing short of a mess.
