    Not using IFD is the issue since outlook session is not authenticated to connect to CRM. I guess when you access it through web browser, it must be asking for authentication to connect to AD.

    But the error should be different. Your outlook is saying that it cannot access ''http://ids-crm11/idimension/XRMServices/2011/Organization.svc'. Are you able to access this url from your web browser? Or you are using some other server name to access CRM from the browser?

    This is because, once you are out of your company's network, the DNS you cannot to, doesn't know what is the address of 'http://ids-crm11'. Following could be possible solutions to it:

    -> Configure your outlook connector using IP when you are not in domain. That way it should use the IP itself and not convert it to server address 'http://ids-crm11'

    -> Tell your laptop/computer that all requests made to 'http://ids-crm11' should be routed to the IP instead. For this you could edit the 'hosts' file of your system located at: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\
    Add a new entry to it like below(use your CRM server's IP) and make sure that it gets saved(you may need to unset the system/readonly attribte of it):
    127.0.0.1 ids-crm11
    Or instead of editing this system file, you may install some router software which could route requests.
