Configure Address Book to use the University's LDAP electronic people directory.

Open Address Book. It is located in the Dock or in the Applications folder on the hard drive.
Click Address Book > Preferences…
Click the LDAP tab.
Click the + (plus) button. (In Mac OS X 10.2, click the Add button instead.)
Enter the following information:
- Name: ISU LDAP
- Server: dspublic.ilstu.edu
- Search Base: ou=People, o=IllinoisState, dc=ILSTU, dc=EDU
- Port: 389
In the Authentication area, leave the User name and Password fields empty. (In Mac OS X 10.2, there is no Authentication area.)
Click Save to save your LDAP settings.

Address Book is now configured to search the University’s LDAP server.
