Exchange 2010 and Conference Rooms
Hi,
I have an Exchange Server 2010 and we have three conference rooms. I would like to have my users to schedule meetings in each these rooms.
I see an option for a "room finder" when I am in a calendar event. It seems like that would be a good feature to use.
Is there a way to see the conference rooms from a users calendar directly?
Anyone have any good ideas what would work best? Are there any gotchas I should look out for? We don't have sharepoint.

That looks like some good info. I will review and get back, thanks for everyone's help.
Users can be shared those conf room calendars (with appropriate permissions) in their outlook which will help them to create as appointment too, instead of sending meeting request to book the rooms.
ssk_2k3 is correct a Room in Exchange is essentially a user account, you can see it in Active Directory and by default it will be disabled. What I have done in the past is enable the room account in AD so I can share it's calendar but only given access to one or two people to manage any issues that come up. You don't want to many people to have access to be able to make change to that calendar directly. It works much better if they book the room using free / busy in my experience.
