Shared Calender

[Derek G]

Hi all. I am sure that I am just missing something simple so feel free to
point it out to me, but....

Here is what I want to do

Specs.

SBS2003 prem All clients outlook 2003

I want to have shared calender that all of my users can use.

I created a second calender and called it shared and placed it in my
mailbox.
I set the permissions so that others could use it.

Problem I am having is that when sit at another users computer to set up the
connection tot he shared calender, the pull down I get has the folder types.
I select calender, and the only thing I can access is the main calender in
the mail box.

Here are the questions I pose:

1. How can I get them to access the shared calender?
2. Would I be better off setting something up in the Companyweb
(please keep in mind that computers are a 'new' thing to about half
of this group)

Thanks for all of your help in advance.

Derek

So, are you using Exchange public calendars?

Milly
Thanks for the reply,

I have public folders, and I thought about using them too, I was just hoping
to have a calender so a group of people can use it, and not every one in the
domain.

Create a public calendar in public folders and restrict access to designated
users.
