RPC/HTTPS functionality in Entourage 2008

[vincez]

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Email Client: Exchange Hi All,

I recall that a similiar feature is working in entourage 2004 and I have managed to find several guides on the net for this configuration.
However, I am facing challenges to configure this in Entourage 2008 and have failed to find any articles that provides the configuration steps for Entourage 2008 connectivity to Exchange from home.

Question is this feature still available?
Can someone please point me to the correct direction. Many thanks

Entourage does not support RPC over HTTP, however, it does support
WebDAV over HTTP and this accomplishes the same thing.

These instructions were written for Entourage 2004, but they still apply
to 2008:

"Connecting Entourage to an Exchange Server from Home"

Hope this helps!

hi Will,

thanks for your response.
I have tried the procedure and though entourage 2008 is configured in a similiar way and on my ISA logs I do see the successfull connection but the folders of the Exchange mailbox are not showing up on the entourage. &quot;Not connected&quot; is not appended to the configured accoutn hence i believe its connected but the folders are not showing /syncing some how.
Any idea?

The first thing to verify is that you're able to view your account using
the same server address and login in a web browser such as Safari. Are
you able to view your account using Outlook Web Access (OWA)?
