Thank you, Boris. I'll dig further. I've read that the 3268 port is needed
for lookups against the Global Catalog. Is it (this lookup) an optional
feature or is it a mandatory one for a normally functioning Entourage?
The WebDAV situation is still foggy; it is disabled but OWA works fine and
also OL2003 with RPC over HTTP.
But the main problem remains the LDAP related 3268 port. Really, I wouldn't
like to open it as I don't know what kind of dialog is going on there.

Thanks.
