automatically processing meeting requests

I have a conference room that I want people to book.

I have set up the account and given the appropriate people access.

I go into the conference room account and check the boxes in the calendar options to automatically process meeting requests and reject conflicting meetings.

I test it with my account (as a domain admin) by setting up the conference room as a system resource. When I set up the meeting it does not auto process to that resource and when I go back in to the account I see that the resource scheduling boxes are unchecked..

What is up with that?????
