Entourage uses LDAP to query the GAL. Your system admin should be able to
tell you the LDAP server to put in your Entourage Exchange account dialog.

If you have access to a PC running Outlook 2003, you can hold down the
control key while right-clicking the Outlook icon in the system tray, choose
Connection Status in the menu, and then get the directory server from the
resulting window.
