Steps for Sharing Contacts And Calendars for Exchange 2003 Users
I have a Windows 2003 Small Business Server w Exchange on it. The 5 users in this small domain all use Outlook to access their e-mail, but they are connecting directly to a hosted e-mail service provide by their Internet provider.
My question is this:
Can I share contact and calendar information without messing with the way users are getting their e-mail?

After doing some reading this week, it does look like you have to be using the exchange mailbox in order to share the calendar and contacts as Sam points out and then it is necessary to share contacts and address books from the clients, i.e., not the exchange management console as kogo points out. Thanks for your input I will distribute points soon.

Thanks Gary!
are they using the server to pick up their emails directly, or outlook?
the easiest way to share the contacts is to select in outlook;
>Tools
>options
>delegates
>add the username
allow them reviewing rights over the calender and contacts,
then on the other users pc you can click on the calender tab and select the option to open a shared caleder, select the user who has shared it and it will appear. use the same method for the contacts, you will have to do this for each person who you want to share the infomation with.
