<title>Sharing your Cards</title>
<para>
If you keep your cards on a network using an <glossterm
linkend="ldap">LDAP</glossterm> server, you can share access to
them, browse other peoples addressbooks, or maintain a shared set of
contact information for your company or your department. This
is the sort of feature you'll want to use if your company has a
list of vendors and clients that needs constant updating. If
you share calendars as well as addressbooks, people can avoid
duplicating work and keep up to date on developments within
their workgroup or across the entire company.
The <glossterm linkend="ldap">LDAP</glossterm> protocol was
created to let users share contact information over a network.
LDAP allows for users to browse other people's addressbooks, or
maintain a shared set of contact information for a company or
department. This feature comes in handy if you are in a group
where there are lots of people using the same contacts. Such an
example would be the sales department of a company with their
client list.
