Exch.2003, Public Folder Group Permission problem
I have Exchange 2003 running on Windows 2003 in a Windows 2000 Domain.
I'm trying to setup group level permissions for Public Folders. I've created and tested several Universal Distribution Groups and Universal Security Groups all with Exchange e-mail address so they will show up in the Exchange Global Address book. I've gone into the Exchange System Manger and right clicked the Public Folder I want and added the group under Client Permissions with the appropriate permissions. I've added several users to the USG and UDG, but none of the users can see the Public Folders. If I add the individual user under Client Permissions everything works fine. We were using Mixed Mode, but I switched it to Native mode this past Friday. Although I'm mostly testing with USGs, the UDGs I've tested with are converting to USGs.
What else could I be missing? Do these groups need permissions set outside of Client Permissions?
Thanks,
Bluefinger

Marc, I don't have any 9551 events.
Dawne, I've tried Universal and Global, Security and Distribution. Occasionally I'll get a single user to work when added to one of the groups, but can't get the user to work in any of the other groups or any other users to work in same group as the first user. It simply doesn't seem to work with group permissions.

PCbrat: Changeing to Global Security Groups from Universal Security Groups did the trick. It took close to an hour for the rights to propogate, but it is working now.
Thanks.
