OWA address book question   
Hey everyone,

We are running a Win2k3 domain and Exch 2003 sp2.  We are a University so
there are a LOT of privticy issues that we have to meet.

We have two GAL(s), one for Fac/Staff and one for Students.  The student GAL
is private and only people I gvie access to it can see it.  This works fine
in Outlook, however, we have found this not to be ture when using OWA.  It
seems anyone can access the student GAL via OWA.

While in OWA if you hit the space bar one time in the "Display name" field
and click the "Find" button it will round robin between the two GAL(s)
giving ANYONE access!

Anyone know of a way to stop this?

TIA,

Clayton

Take a look at the discussion thread at 
<http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1242832&SiteID=

Re: OWA address book question   
Hi there,

You need to limit the users search scope.

You can do this by populating the MsExchQueryBaseDN attribute for each user 
to limit their OWA GAL search to a specific OU.

Have a read of: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/817218

Something like ADModify.Net or similar should be able to let you make this 
change in two steps, one for Staff and the other for Students.

Hope this helps,

Oliver
