Authenticate to GAL but hide membership?

I'm trying to find a way in Exchange2003 to allow an outlook client to
authenticate to a default GAL but *not* be able to see the other members of
the GAL.

When I try to base a GAL off of an AD Group (where I can use the option HIDE
MEMBERSHIP) the users get a 'bookmark not valid' error.

Surely there is a simple way to do this!

Yep, you cant do what you want. If you restrict access you cant create a
profile and you will get a bookmark error.

You could create a new GAL with no users within, and only allow permissions
for this one user to access it.

They way you're trying to get it work isn't possible.

Creating a GAL with no users will still fail as you have to have at least
one or the Outlook client will fail with a INVALID_BOOKMARK error.
