[NTLK] Newtsync Failure on Names/Address Book

Using latest Newtsync and have problems with sync of address book and names.
   Using osx10.3.9, not Tiger. Sync 16 names and then hangs up with
error message. Was told that if too many names and if too much detail in
entries then could be problems. Have culled names down to 200 and gone
through entries to keep size of details to hopefully less than 100
characters. Any other suggestions on how to proceed.

Error log looked like this.

Error: NSInvalidArgumentException
Reason: *** -[ABSearchElementMatch isEqualToString:]: selector not
recognized

It went on like this for some time so that there were 21 entries if you
count the uniqueID numbers, however only 16 names were synched before it
stopped. Would later entries be the problem or would the 17th entry have
caused the glitche? Any leads appreciated. Maybe I am just wasting my
time trying?

Thanks
