Re:Similar situation / question. (Score 1)

It's quite easy actually, here is what I do: 1. Set up a Samba share with liberal permissions that everyone has R/W access to. In this example it will be \\linuxserver\freebusy. It doesnt matter if someone wants to delete all the files in the share anyway, because Outlook will just publish them again, so security on this share doesnt need to be tight. 2. In Outlook 98 or above go into Tool, Options, Calendar Options, then click on the Free/Busy options box. 3. Put a check in 'publish my free/busy info' in the publish location put the following file://\\linuxserver\freebusy\myname.vfb Where myname is the part before the @ in your e-mail address In the 'Search at URL' put in the following file://\\linuxserver\freebusy\%name%.vfb Outlook will substitute the %name% field with the part before the @ in the attendee's e-mail For maximum effectivness, use a LDAP server to resolve names into e-mail addresses. Thats a whole 'nother topic though. Hope this helps! -CivikMinded-
