Re: [Fed-Talk] Apple Address Book



Also if your forest is sizable, using honest LDAP in AD is quite slow. When using standard LDAP port TCP 386, AD will traverse the forest to get the real information instead of the cached information at your local domain controller (DC). If your network has choke points, this can take 10 minutes to return as has been my experience. This locks up the address book which eventually blocks on the retrieval thread execution.

The bad news is that using the Global Catalogue (GC) you are using whatever managed to get replicated. AD is notorious for replication errors usually in omissions.

Good tools for interrogating LDAP:

If you have had luck let me know what you are using for the settings.

AD denies null binding on LDAP ports by default. You should be able to use the global catalog port (3268) on a GC server instead.
