marking as duplicate as discussed on irc with gerardo.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 261783 ***
Comment 2 Sushma Rai 2005-08-26 06:31:39 UTC
This is not actually duplicate of 261783. 
261783 talks about configuration changes will be effective only 
after evolution restart.

This problem is fixed in 2.3
Started Evolution, marked ldap address book for autocompletion,
tried autocompletion with existing object in ldap server, autocompletion
works.
added a new contact to server using evolution, tried autocompletion,
works.
Comment 3 Sushma Rai 2005-08-26 06:32:43 UTC
This works now. Please verify with newer version of Evolution.
