Gentlemen, [Peter, Ed, Matthew, Steve, David, and Jim] Thank you for your posts with suggestions, pertinent feedback, and opinions. After installing Hotfix 831464 and SP1 on SBS2003, and updating Entourage to 10.1.5, I have had better results. Now I'm only getting Username/Password errors, which I think were due to my "editing" the usernames after creating them. For example, dstark became David Stark. Do spaces create a problem in an account username? I wouldn't think so, since editing it did not provide any warnings about it. Tonight I will finish the updates on all the Entourage clients and create new user accounts to see what shakes out from that.
Any way, I feel I am closer to success. I am disappointed by some of your comments about Exchange and Entourage. Especially, as Matthew Joyce said, "I have to say it's not that great. Certainly not the integration wonderland MS suggested it would be". This is the main reason we chose SBS2003 over a MacOSX Server: for Calendaring and Contact sharing. Very disappointing news. Continue with the feedback, suggestions, and support if you have any. I'll update you on my progress. Also, one of you asked about versions: (now)Mac OSX 10.3.4, (now)Office X 10.1.5, SBS2003 w/all critical updates and Hotfix and SP1. Thanks again, David Stark Anchorage Alaska Sunrise: 4:22am Sunset 11:43pm -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matthew Joyce Sent: Tuesday, June 22, 2004 7:08 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Fully Qualified Domain Name and Macintoshes We have install Entourage with Exchange, I have to say it's not that great. Certainly not the integration wonderland MS suggested it would be. It uses OWA for public folder iirc too. Try using the ip address instead of the server name. Make sure the macs are using a dns server which has your .local entry. There are several patches to Entourage available. I have never had any success using the server name alone.
