Got my Entourage-Exchange address lookup working

So for months I’ve been living with Entourage giving me an “error contacting LDAP server” error when I try to look up names on our company’s Exchange server. It turns out the LDAP access followed the Mailbox when it was migrated to a new server, but my Entourage didn’t migrate LDAP.

I found the new LDAP hostname by starting the wizard for adding an Exchange account, giving my address and authentication information, and the wizard determined the correct LDAP address. I stopped the wizard at that point, and entered the new LDAP address in the existing account.

It’s a bit embarrassing that I endured this problem for so long, but at least it’s fixed NOW.
