I am a newbie to Mac Entourage, intermediate with Mac OSx and am fluent with Exchange 2003. I have a straight foward setup and it just won't work. I have tried everything so I am hoping someone can shed some light on this. I am only interested in connecting to Exchange while on our LAN where the Exchange box also sits. Info: Internal AD domain name - company.local External domain name (email) - company.org exchange server - mailserver.company.local LDAP server - DC1.company.local username for windows logon - jsmith (jsmith@company.org & jsmith@company.local) I have tried every combination that I can think of for this information. Please let me know what else I can try. I am my wits end with this and don't know what else to try. Should I setup anything on the Mac (osx) in the settings area that isn't by default? Thanks in advance for any information that help me move forward on this.

If it's OS X 10.4 you need to put the company domain into your search domains as the first entry. Macs do not like domains called xxxxx.local

Have a look at these instructions and see if you're missing something <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/exchange/exchangeatwork.html>. FYI, this newsgroup has been deprecated and replaced with microsoft.office.mac.office.entourage. Be sure to post any further questions in that group rather than this one. You'll have a lot more eyes seeing your messages there. Hope this helps! -- bill William M.
