Jabber for Windows LDAP problems

Question

I have been modifying the jabber-config.xml file to get the results I need without a lot of success.
Our Business phone number is derived from the ipPhone field
We have many disabled users that continue to show up in searches
Even though I have confirmed that users have their phone number in AD, only 50 persent of users in Jabber show the number
This is what I have thus far:
    <BusinessPhone>ipPhone</BusinessPhone>
    <CommonName>cn</CommonName>
    <DisplayName>displayName</DisplayName>
    <FirstName>givenName</FirstName>
    <LastName>sn</LastName>
    <EmailAddress>mail</EmailAddress>
    <Title>title</Title>
    <UserAccountName>sAMAccountName</UserAccountName>
    <DomainName>userPrincipalName</DomainName>
    <Location>co</Location>
    <State>st</State>
    <StreetAddress>streetAddress</StreetAddress>
    <BaseFilter>(&(ipPhone=*)(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2))</BaseFilter>
    <PredictiveSearchFilter>anr=</PredictiveSearchFilter>
    <DisableSecondaryNumberLookups>1</DisableSecondaryNumberLookups>
This is not the entire Directory section as I have removed server info. I tried several different Base Filters with really no luck.
Also, in the documentation it shows that I need to add "amp;"after the "&" but this does not work. I don't see any user information. If I remove the trailing ")" Same thing.
Thanks.

Hi eemge,
the following line contains wrong statements:
(&(ipPhone=*)(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2))
from my point of view it should be:
(&(ipPhone=*)(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)
There is no way to use & (as and) or | (as or) as a statement caused by incompatibility to the UTF-8 Standard.
For & you have to use &
and for | it´s |
Another trap is the last bracket that you have to leave out.
I hope it will work for you.
