Im working in an almost all Win PC XP enviroment, but we have 3 Mac's all running MS office for Mac 2008. I can't access the exchange global adressbook, that holds all contacts in the company and i can't see fellow workers calenders and therefore invite them to meetings.
The "funny" thing is, that it used to work, but after a complete reinstalle of both OS X Leopard and MS Office 2008 it stopped working. One of my colleques can access both. When checking the Entourage prefs set-up, it looks like they are identical. Any suggestions, is it sys prefs or do i need to change anything in my Enturage set-up?

The GAL information comes from your LDAP server and the free/busy
information comes from the Public folders server. Have a look at these
instructions for configuring an Exchange account in Entourage:

"Connecting Entourage to an Exchange Server at work"
<http://entourage.mvps.org/exchange/exchangeatwork.html>

"Connecting Entourage to an Exchange Server from Home"
<http://entourage.mvps.org/exchange/exchangeathome.html>

Hope this helps!
