In all my years as a tech I’ve never had as much of a head ache as trying to figure an email contact sharing system using a combo of Active Directory, Exchange Server 2003, and Outlook 2007.
Here’s the problem. We have about 15 XP Pro SP2 machines for people. All are under 1 domain on 1 Windows 2003 R2 SBS server. All office PC’s use Office 2007 suite, including Outlook 2007. We would like a system where all contacts for persons outside our network, would be stored in a single location, accessable and editable by all, hopefully through Outlook. I’ve been able to create contact entries on the server it’s self using AD, but when a client PC attempts to change any information, or add new entries to the list, there is no option of doing so, only changing local contacts saved to that specific outlook data file. Any help/ideas?
