EUDC LDAP configuration is simpler in Emacs 25. There shouldn’t be a need to call eudc-set-server anymore. All configuration should be declarative like other packages.
Many of the below setq’s are for bad defaults and outright bugs in EUDC. I tried to fix those for Emacs 25. I also updated the EUDC manual with an “LDAP Configuration” section. If you go through that section, rewrite your configuration, and something doesn’t work, please file a bug at bug-gnu-emacs. Likewise, if you have to hack something to make it work for you, please file a bug about it and I’ll look at it and try to fix it properly in Emacs itself.

Adapt and add the following to your .emacs file:
(require 'ldap) (require 'eudc) (setq eudc-default-return-attributes nil eudc-strict-return-matches nil) (setq ldap-ldapsearch-args (quote ("-tt" "-LLL" "-x"))) (setq eudc-inline-query-format '((name) (firstname) (firstname name) (email) )) (setq ldap-host-parameters-alist (quote (("your_server" base "ou=addressbook,dc=your_dc_here,dc=fr" binddn "cn=admin,dc=your_dc_here,dc=fr" passwd "your_password")))) (eudc-set-server "your_server" 'ldap t) (setq eudc-server-hotlist '(("your_server" . ldap))) (setq eudc-inline-expansion-servers 'hotlist) (defun enz-eudc-expand-inline() (interactive) (move-end-of-line 1) (insert "*") (unless (condition-case nil (eudc-expand-inline) (error nil)) (backward-delete-char-untabify 1)) ) ;; Adds some hooks (eval-after-load "message" '(define-key message-mode-map (kbd "TAB") 'enz-eudc-expand-inline)) (eval-after-load "sendmail" '(define-key mail-mode-map (kbd "TAB") 'enz-eudc-expand-inline)) (eval-after-load "post" '(define-key post-mode-map (kbd "TAB") 'enz-eudc-expand-inline))
eudc-inline-query doesn’t seem to work for me. With multiple results I always get the message “Multiple matches found; choose one: “ and possible completions are “ <>” (an empty result string). Any ideas? I don’t see any error messages. Queries with single results work fine.
This may work now in Emacs 25 (i.e., master branch as of 2015-05-16). If you can, retry and file a bug if it doesn't work. Re-read the EUDC manual's "LDAP Configuration" section, which has seen a bunch of updates, including an ldapsearch troubleshooting subsection.Is there a way to perform multiple queries on the same server? --Mitch
Not yet. If you still want this feature, please file a bug so that we can discuss how this should work.
