[turba] SyncML & Turba

What SyncML client are you using? Sync4j? Synthesis? etc... with Outlook?
Palm? etc...


*In the case of Sync4j*, Horde's lib/SyncML/Device/Sync4j.php file contains
functions sif2vcard and vcard2sif which contain lines similar to:

$vcard->setAttribute('NICKNAME', $a['NickName']);

You may need to modify some of those values based on your LDAP
configuration, and it may require some trial-and-error on your part.

I confess I don't know much about the other clients, so hopefully others can
help with them as needed.

Subject: [turba] SyncML & Turba

Hi,

I'm currently trying to synchronize the addressbook by using SyncML. I'm
using turba with a LDAP addressbook.

Almost everything seems to work, except the following:

a) some turba field names seems not been mapped correctly to the SyncML
field names (e.g. company)

b) if an entry on the mobile device has been changed, the corresponding
entry on the server is not found


Regarding a)
Is there any mapping between horde and SyncML field names? If not, what
are the correct "real standard field names" so that thy work with SyncML?

Regarding b)
The editing is correctly recognized by syncml / turba but when it is
tried to find the corresponding entry, the wrong uid is used:

SRCH base="ou=addressbook,ou=personal_addressbook,dc=flossmann,dc=net"
scope=2 deref=0 filter="(&(objectClass=person)(&(uid=*sven*)))"

The uid should be some more complex entry, like
"20060101151828.61hohs9xlf28 at www2.flossmann.net". The mapping between
SyncML and the UID is correct, but it seems, that this is not used.


Does anybody have any solutions or ideas?


Thanks,
	Sven
