Been there done that and I never got the t shirt :) it's a horrid path to go 
down, yes it's simple when you know how to do it as some one told me when I 
was busy with the setup, but my anserw was that anything is simple when you 
know how to do it, but the docs around setting up a simple address book is 
horrid and it seriously needs a lot of work, I am looking at putting together 
a simple how to and post up on my server, but it would be better if I could 
post it on a wiki that people actually use.

Kind regards
