Anyone know of a simple howto somewhere on the net for

I haven't used either of these myself, but they might fit your needs if
you haven't seen them already.

FWIW, a year or two back I setup an addressbook using Fedora Directory
Services. I found that there was a lot of variation in what fields
different applications expected entries to reside. Some applications
could be configured to use certain fields, others couldn't and required
some magic trickery on the server side. I could see the advantage for an
enterprise with thousands of addresses, using a specific set of
corporate apps pre-configured for LDAP but it was more pain that it was
worth for a personal addressbook. YMMV of course. :)
