You can browse the Exchange GAL from the Address Book in Entourage 2004 SP2
or later. In the left pane of the Address Book window, you'll have to choose
the one of the address lists associated with your Exchange account -- but if
your organization has sublists for the GAL, they should appear there.

This should work outside your organization's network if you can connect
Entourage to a public-facing front end/OWA server, which should be done with
SSL for security.

The lookups done when composing mail messages and calendar invitations, as I
recall, are all done with LDAP to the Global Catalog. These typically fail
when you go outside your organization's local network, since the ports used
for this communication are often blocked from remote access.
