Yes, openLDAP doesn't have such, but there is enough info around how to make it,
f.e. http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2003/03/27/ldap_ab.html

see attachement for db structure.

ok, but i am going to add new entries using Turba and in that case the input
form does not contain sn/gn fields, just name. Hereto, if i enter info in
any of the other fields, i get the same "error adding object"... I think, there
is something to do with horde/ldap field mappings in turba conf...

i made ldif file based on ISO8859-13 and slapcat can't add this as well (it
seems that only UTF8 is accepted) - just changed an ldif, which was accepted
previously

i don't think so (slapd.conf):
access to * by * write

no, personal addressbooks are not under ou=People, but under
personal_addressbook:

dn: ou=janis,ou=personal_addressbook,dc=dv,dc=lv
ou: janis
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalUnit
structuralObjectClass: organizationalUnit

It should be noted that the only intended function of ldap at the moment is
storage of addrbooks for the use by Horde apps.

ha, but i do not use UTF8 as it makes more problems than benefits. It is rarely
used alltogether at the moment.
