Auto-sharing resource calendars... I know there are posted work-arounds for being able to view a resource's calendar (I guess using zmprov, then logging as the resource, and sharing it's calendar out to everybody as view-only is the current one?) but -
Hopefully in a future release, when resources are created, their calendars are automatically shared (viewable) by everybody in that domain (?). This would be great, unless people have 10 or 20 resources, in which case there are a lot of calendars showing up in the left-nav area of the web-client.

On a related note - when using the ZCS Outlook 2003 connector, and Zimbra 3.1 (NE), should I automatically be able to view free/busy info for other users in the GAL?
Because right now, I can add them from the GAL in Outlook (on the "Scheduling" tab, using "Add Others", and choosing "Global Address Book", then picking users). But after adding them, Outlook says it cannot retrieve the free/busy info.
I have checked the Outlook User's guide, the NE Admin guide, and done searches on this forum, and variously found URLs for free/busy info, and one post that said that with the connector, free/busy worked already.
Soo... should this in fact be working? Do I need to open port 8081 on my zimbra server's firewall? I'll start trolling thru the rest of the the "Outlook Connector" forum posts, but any help is appreciated! |
