I'm looking for a simple feature within OS X server (10.2.6)

I want all the clients on the network to get the mail adresses from all the persons within our company from the OS X server with LDAP. So if they look under directories within adressbook (and they have setup the ldap server within adress book) they can see all the people with their email adresses.

I tried many things to get it working but without any result.

Can somebody tell me how to do this or give me a helpfull url about setting up the server side

The easiest way to do it is to use Directory Access in Utilities. You'll need to configure the LDAP plugin to point to your server. Then you can add it to the search path under the Contacts tab. Address Book, Mail, and any other app that supports Directory Services will then automatically be able to use your LDAP server for contacts.

As for setting up the server, read the Admin Guide on the OS X Server CDs. I think it's on the Admin Tools CD.
