Platform: Exchange 2003 sp1/Office2003 Ad2003 All, I have 30 conference rooms that do not publish more than two months of their calander. I have logged into each one of them and set their free/busy options to 12 months and they do change to 12 months, but they then return back to 2 months after a short while. I also have about 8 users that are "Conference Room Admins" that have full access to them and I have requested that they change their free/busy time to 12 months. Which they did. This did not make a difference. I also use www.swinc.com's ERM (exchange resource manager) to manage the rooms and there is no option to extend the free/busy times in that software. Any ideas would be helpful. FastEddie
If you're not using the Auto-Accept Agent you'll need to login to each resource mailbox using Outlook, then go to Tools | Options | Calendar Options | Free/Busy Options and raise it to 12 months. -- Bharat Suneja MCSE, MCT www.zenprise.com blog: www.suneja.com/blog ----------------------------------------- "FastEddie" wrote in message news:upntAHP9FHA.912@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... > Platform: Exchange 2003 sp1/Office2003 Ad2003 > > All, > > I have 30 conference rooms that do not publish more than two months of > their calander.

I did that and it set's itself back to 2 months after a day or so. -Ed "Bharat Suneja" wrote in message news:OnMlJvP9FHA.2040@TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... > If you're not using the Auto-Accept Agent you'll need to login to each > resource mailbox using Outlook, then go to Tools | Options | Calendar > Options | Free/Busy Options and raise it to 12 months. > > -- > Bharat Suneja > MCSE, MCT > www.zenprise.com > blog: www.suneja.com/blog > ----------------------------------------- > > > "FastEddie" wrote in message > news:upntAHP9FHA.912@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... >> Platform: Exchange 2003 sp1/Office2003 Ad2003 >> >> All, >> >> I have 30 conference rooms that do not publish more than two months of >> their calander.

A guess - is there a gpo dictating the free/busy option?

There is and we applied it to the people that have access to these mailboxes and it did not make a difference. Since we use Swinc.com ERM, our system uses CDO on the server which defaults to 3 months. The following registry entry controls the amount of free/busy information published: Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\EXCDO\Parameters Name: FBPublishMonth Type: DWORD Value: 1 - 36 Default value = 3 Thanks for your help. This information was given to me by www.swinc.com. They are really good!! -Fasteddie "Kevin Longley" wrote in message news:%23fVoSRT9FHA.2696@TK2MSFTNGP11.phx.gbl... >A guess - is there a gpo dictating the free/busy option? > "FastEddie" wrote in message > news:u98GwbR9FHA.2832@TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... >>I did that and it set's itself back to 2 months after a day or so. >> >> -Ed >> >> "Bharat Suneja" wrote in message >> news:OnMlJvP9FHA.2040@TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... >>> If you're not using the Auto-Accept Agent you'll need to login to each >>> resource mailbox using Outlook, then go to Tools | Options | Calendar >>> Options | Free/Busy Options and raise it to 12 months. >>> >>> -- >>> Bharat Suneja >>> MCSE, MCT >>> www.zenprise.com >>> blog: www.suneja.com/blog >>> ----------------------------------------- >>> >>> >>> "FastEddie" wrote in message >>> news:upntAHP9FHA.912@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... >>>> Platform: Exchange 2003 sp1/Office2003 Ad2003 >>>> >>>> All, >>>> >>>> I have 30 conference rooms that do not publish more than two months of >>>> their calander.
