sync problems

I have been trying to Sync entourage 2004 and ical.
Address book and contacts seem fine.
If I sync to my local calendar on Entourage it works, albeit VERY
slowly with the hard disc wiring away for ages (Mac mini with 1 GB). I
have perhaps 300 events to sync.

If I sync with my remote calandar on MS exchange at work the whole
thing seems to just hang. I cannot restart unless I reboot, it seems
to hang the rest of the office components too.

Any ideas?

Further to my first post - even syncing with the local calendar causes
a freeze.

Basically, entourage works if I avoid the calendar - if I touch it is
locks up.
I have tried to switch of all the syncing via entourage to no avail.
Is there some trick to undo this and restore my syncing capability?

any help?

More RAM would definitely improve performance.

This is an exchange issue and out of my area of expertise. Whenever you have
a problem that involves exchange, it's best to put exchange in the subject
so the exchange folks will be sure to notice the thread.

Thanks, I have 1 Gb RAM, is this really not enough! its only 300
records.

Also, Further to my first post - even syncing with the local calendar

locks up.
I have tried to switch of all the syncing via entourage to no avail.
First, Is there some trick to undo this
and second, if I can risk it, to restore my syncing capability from a
clean start?
I will forward this to Exchange forum too.

any help?
