[SOGo] LDAP address book contact list

[Anton Popov]

Hi all,

I have a SOGo setup with an LDAP address book.

When I search for a contact in the web interface, for example by first
letter, I get a list of all contacts matching.

However, I do no t get a list of all contacts from the LDAP when there is
nothing in the search field.

Is that normal behaviour, or my LDAP config is wrong?

Thanks,


Anton.

It's the normal behavior, type the "." if you want to see everything (or
reach your server or SOGo's max search limit).

The search limit on my ldap server is quite high, how do I set it on the
SOGo side? Couldn't find it in the install docs...

Use SOGoLDAPQueryLimit - we'll adjust the install guide.

Hi all,

I've created some calendars which are for general consumption, e.g. a
corporate events calendar, or to indicate public holidays etc. These
will be shared with the users in general, and they should not be able to
add/modify/delete such events.

However, I'm not sure what the appropriate permissions to set for the
sharing are. If I use the most obvious, "View All", then trying to
dismiss the default popup reminder errors out (obviously, as my test
user doesn't have permissions to do so).

The various options are:
a) View All
b) View Date and Time
c) Modify
d) Respond To
e) None

I'm pretty sure (a), (b), (c) and (e) are not correct, which leaves only
(d). What does that actually mean, though, and is it appropriate for
this usage?

Thanks for your comments.

regards, Phing

To answer my question partially, I found in the SOGo FAQ:

* *None* : Absolutely no rights given
* *View Date & Time* : Can view the date and time of the calendar
object - the rest of the information is automatically stripped
* *View All* : Can view all information related to a calendar object
- just like the owner (implies View Date & Time)
* *Respond* : Can respond to invitations (implies View All)
* *Modify* : Can modify the calendar objects (implies View All and
Respond)

I tested by changing the share to Respond, but the event would keep
popping up until someone with the appropriate Modify permission
dismissed the event in their calendar.

So looks like this is not the right way to publish a "public" or
"shared" calendar? Or do I bite the bullet and give Modify permission,
just not create/delete?

You may want to examine and add a note to bug #85, as it addresses
this issue in a slightly different fashion. Not presently assigned,
though.

iCal-format HTTP GET view of a calendar:
