writing Outlook E-Mail config File via LDAP when creating a new User?

[grassi3000]

Hi,

the programm I'm writing is for a school to create the userprofiles of
the pupils in Active Directory. every user has an exchange 2003 email
adress and as for that it exists in the LDAP adressbook which is
accessible in outlook 2k3.

is it possible, to create an outlook config file, that automatically
uses the email adress of the special user and that automatically uses
the right login data to access the ldap adressbook?

the reason why i want to do this, is that the user doesn't need to
configure outlook after the first login by himself to use his email
adress and the adressbook.

thx for your help

Why are you using LDAP? The Exchange GAL is exposed automatically when you
use the Exchange service in the profile? You can use the Office Resource Kit
tools to create a default .prf that sets up the initial profile.
