We don't allow write access to the Kolab Server ldap part.
Note that his is only like a company wide addressbook.
Every user has its personal contacts (which are also handled by KAddressBook),
but saved to the disconnected IMAP account.

As system administrator of the service you can carefully 
use ldiff files to do mass changes to the ldap contents
or write scripts for other mass tasks.

Yes, we don't need it, because in principle there is only public 
information ithe read-only company phone book. :)
