Running Exchange EWS in Mono LdapException

I am trying to experiment using Exchange EWS 2 on debian via Mono (versions 2.10.8.1 and 3.0.6) I am developing Windows 8 using vs2012.

The program works fine on windows, and I get the expected result.

In mono, however, I continue to get the following output and exception.

<Trace Tag="AutodiscoverConfiguration" Tid="1" Time="2013-03-07 19:09:05Z">

Apparently he is trying to find a host that he cannot find. Both my windows and Linux systems use the same DNS server, so this does not cause a problem.

I read the trace on the windows when it works - and the trace shows that the requests do not work several times, and the autodiscover method tries several different URLs until it hits one that works - mono, but it seems to crash after the first failure and the end.
