RE: can't connect to server



now, it says:
"There are no entries in the directory service that match your search
criteria"
when I go to Find People|People and type in "linh", "linh huynh" in the name
bracket or linh@ehand.se in the email bracket...

but the netscape messenger is still chewing now when I click on my directory
server...
doesn't say anything. :-/
