maxpersabentries
Determines the maximum number of personal address book entries. Functionality implemented for CorporateTime Client 4.0 and above.

FALSE (disables the publishing of address books)
TRUE
[GENPREFS]
offlineab
Disables the address book on a user-by-user basis. Functionality implemented for CorporateTime Client 5.1 and above. The CorporateTime 5.x Client includes sign-in enhancements to protect the address book. If they are disabled, it will return to the pre-5.x login features. This version of the client does not allow a user to overwrite another user's off-line folders, instead prompting him to save to another location. This can be problematic in an environment where people share machines or if password changes are made from other applications. If a user changes his password in CorporateTime, the new password is automatically synchronized to his off-line storage, but the passwords may not be synchronized if the change is made from another application and so the user may not be able to access his off-line files. The Address Book is stored locally in the off-line folders and so needs to be disabled in order for this parameter to work properly in these cases.
TRUE (enables the address book)
FALSE (disables the address book)
TRUE
