We are trying to setup a calender share for one of our
conference rooms but are doing something wrong. We would
like any domain users to be able to go into the Calender
(under Public Folders) and create or modify meetings. We
are running Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Exchange 2000
with all updates applied.
What we did was create an Active Directory user named
MeetingRoom4, we then created a meeting, invited users and
when they agree it does populate their calender. But this
is not right because it does not show on the Public
Folder. Maybe somehow we need to associate the public
folder with the user account?? Thanks for the help.

Maybe you're just looking in the wrong place. Resources like conference
rooms are usually set up as AD users with mailboxes, not as public folders,
so that people can invite the room to the meeting. See
