LDAP addressbook has flaky authentication/authorization.

[Raphael Mankin]

I am connecting to ldap addressbooks on port 389, with no encryption.

The addressbooks work OK on my desktop at work.

From my laptop at home using wifi I keep getting error 0x32 - insufficient access. Logout/login does not cure the problem. Reboot does not clear the problem. I can run ldapsearch with no problems.

I have managed to make it work by killing e-addressbook-server and all the other evolution processes, deleting the ldap password from my keyring and starting again. It is conceivable that the keyring became corruupt, but the password has not changed in yonks, so something is rotten somewhere.

I suspect that this is a duplicate of 1010349 and 1292166

I also suspect that the problem is that evolution is starting before the keyring is unlocked. When the keyring is unlocked e-addressbook-server does not recover its connection. Killing and restarting therefore clears the problem.
