Updated Exchange setup script supports Entourage 2008

I've posted version 2.0 of my EntourageExchangeSetup AppleScript on The Entourage Help Page that includes support for Microsoft Entourage 2008's Kerberos feature as well as some minor additions and bug fixes.

This AppleScript is intended to be modified by an administrator to assist his Entourage users with the setups of their Exchange server accounts. It has been tested specifically with Entourage 2004 11.2.6, 11.3.3, 11.3.7 and Entourage 12.00, 12.0.1 and 12.1.0 but should work with any version of Entourage 2004 SP2 (11.2.0) and higher. Every company's network is different so this script was written to provide enough ideas for a novice scripter to be able to adapt it for use in his network in just a few minutes.

Following is a list of changes in the new version:

  • Added the ability set Kerberos authentication with principal name (Entourage 2008 only)
  • Added seventh E-mail option (shortname@domain.com)
  • Added fix for correctly setting SSL authentication for LDAP (bug in Entourage 2008 only)

Download the script.
