LDAP returns error in Exchange but no error as Directory service

[Nariman Y]

This one is really weird.
I setup a directory service and also in my Exchange account setting in
Directory tab I setup the same server for LDAP. Then I go to Tools>
Directory Service and I see both of them there (the exchange one and the
other standalone one). Search in stand alone returns results. Search in the
exchange one returns error " The directory service denied access. Verify the
authentication settings for this directory service."

My settings for Authentication and port setting are all set the same here.

Also in Apple AddressBook I setup the same server as LDAP and have no
problem getting results.

Thanks

I am troubleshooting the same thing, except mine only works as anonymous
bind, and not with my exchange account credentials...
I am frustrated and wish MS wrote software that spoke "exchange"

Try this tip from Gil Gordon:
LDAP doesn¹t accept authentication - If you are positive you are connecting
to the right LDAP server and it isn¹t working in Entourage, it is possible
your server doesn¹t require authentication and won¹t accept a connection if
you try to authenticate to it. You can get entourage to not send
authentication information to the LDAP server by running an applescript that
says:
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set requires authentication of LDAP server 1 to false
end tell
