What the easiest way to set up a new iBook with all the prefs and account
details from entourage on my G5?

If you have the same version of Entourage installed on both machines, just
copy the "Microsoft User Data" folder from the G5 to the same location on
the other machine.
G5/Users/<Your User>/Documents/Microsoft User Data/
to
iBook/Users/<Your User>/Documents/

You can transfer it any way you like, by network, removable drive, or
CD/DVD.

Thanks, I did that however. Hotmail accounts wont send or receive.
Newsgroups work fine and its on the ibook that I am sending this. Safari is
also fine. Any idea what is wrong?

Have you tried re-entering your Hotmail account definitions?
