Free/Busy information not showing at all

We recently had a server crash on our Windows Server 2003 running Exchange
2003.  Our users all run Outlook 2003.  After the crash, with the exception
of myself, all users get the /////////////////////// appearing when trying to
schedule a group meeting with other users.  This is not just showing after
the 2 month default time frame but all the way across the time table.  If I
create a new profile for the person with the same information as their old
profile, they can see the Free/Busy information.  Before I go through and
create new profiles for 30+ users, does anyone know what might cause this and
how to fix it?

Thanks,
Greg

Greg,

I am experiencing the same problem as you.  I wonder if you have resolved
this issue yet without having to create all new users?

Thanks,

Chris

Chris,

I have not been able to correct the problem as yet but I haven't had any
time to devote to it either.  Please respond if you or someone else figures
it out.

Thanks and good luck,
Greg

You might try starting Outlook with the /cleanfreebusy switch from a command
line. What sounds like happened is after the server crash, the local hidden
FreeBusy folder in Outlook is not synched with the server Public Folder
Schedule+ Free/Busy. Running it with that switch should force a resync
between the hidden Outlook folder and the server folder.

Thanks,
Scott
