Thanks for your response.
I'm looking into your suggestions,
though there are a bit more adventurous than I would like.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of 389-directory-service,

I looked up eGroupWare, but was surprised there is no official 
Fedora package.
(My only fear with this is that an application not supported by Fedora
might become incompatible with some later distribution.)
