Jabber AD "Contact" search

[thorstenn]

Hi,

is it possible to search for Contacts which are in an AD OU ? Not user. Its an OU with AD Contacts. Does the Contact have a specific attribute to make him visible in Jabber search?

I have tried to add the OU as search base to the XML file but it seems its not working.

Cheers

Thorsten

Base Filter

Specifies a base filter for Active Directory queries. Specify a directory subkey name only to retrieve objects other than user objects when you query the directory. The default value is (&(objectCategory=person).
