LDAP runs on port 389 (and 636 for ldaps).
Microsoft's Global Catalog runs on ports 3268 and 3269.

Schema you'll want to get from your friendliest Active Directory sysadmin.
It's possible they used the same basic schema as in LDAP, but since AD
changed* some other schema your sysadmins may have changed these also.
(Making a change is more sysadmin work than simply leaving the existing
settings, so try the same schema first. You may get lucky.)
I've been able to get Entourage v.X, Entourage 11 (2004) and Address Book
all to read from Active Directory (Microsoft Global Catalog).
Entourage 10 is not easy to set up, and it breaks easily. Entourage 11 is a
much easier and better setup, but you must watch it carefully when the
wizard does its self-configuration for AD. If you have multiple domain
controllers on your WAN, it can look out across the WAN and pick up a DC
other than the one you want. This will mean you have to do a minor reconfig,
but it should at least get the port number right.
