OK, I have this in /etc/mozilla-thunderbird/pref/mailnews.js pref("ldap_1.number_of_directories", 6); pref("ldap_1.directory1.description", "Personal Address Book"); pref("ldap_1.directory1.dirType", 2); pref("ldap_1.directory1.isOffline", false); pref("ldap_1.directory2.description", "Four11 Directory"); pref("ldap_1.directory2.serverName", "ldap.four11.com"); pref("ldap_1.directory3.description", "InfoSpace Directory"); pref("ldap_1.directory3.serverName", "ldap.infospace.com"); pref("ldap_1.directory4.description", "WhoWhere Directory"); pref("ldap_1.directory4.serverName", "ldap.whowhere.com"); pref("ldap_1.directory5.description", "Bigfoot Directory"); pref("ldap_1.directory5.serverName", "ldap.bigfoot.com"); But none of them show up as selections for a ldap server to verify my addresses. That's not what I'm after, it's just an example. I have a local ldap server that I want all of my users to have automatically in their fbird setups. How come it's not there? Do I need to re-create my profile? ... Just tried that, and all I get for ldap in my prefs.js is: user_pref("ldap_2.prefs_migrated", true); Hey, I could just append the data to each user's prefs.js file, but then what are the files in /etc for then? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
