Ok, that was one thing I did not expect. I assume the 
$INSTALLDIR/turba/config/backends.php is the correct file. I had a look 
into that file but I found nothing that matches the VCARD fields I found 
in my sync logs. I found some mappings that seem to be the mapping 
between the sql data fields and the internal turba fields.

$cfgSources['localsql'] = array(
  [...]
     'map' => array(
        [...]
         'firstname' => 'object_firstname',

So far, I understand the mapping mechanism. What I do not understand is 
the mapping between "object_firstname" and the corresponding VCARD field 
(I think it is the N field). Where can I find that mapping?

I assume, the fields that are accepted by my SyncML client are listed 
in the client_11.xml logfile?
