I have setup my Entourage 2008 to our exchange server 2003 from home. Everything is working well except I don't know what our ldap server address is and our search base address. How can I find these.

You cannot just guess. Either it is properly registered in the
discoverable settings on your network (and if the information didn't
make it to your settings, it's probably not the case), or you will have
to ask the network administrators.

Use Outlook for Windows to determine your Exchange account’s server
addresses.

1. Log in to your account using Outlook for Windows.

2. Locate the Outlook icon in the System Tray near the clock.

3. Hold the Control key and right-click the Outlook icon.

4. Select Connection Status... from the contextual menu.

Most likely you do not need to include the search base. If so, your
Exchange Server administrator will need to provide you that information.

Hope this helps!
