I am not clear what we are doing different, but its not working. Can anybody else get this working?
I am running Exchange 2007 beta 2. I am using Outlook 2007 in cached mode.
I create 2 users and put them each in different dynamic groups. I create 2 security groups and put each dynamic group into their respective security group.
I then create an AddressList for each company and include all receipients for their company (by filter)
I then create an OfflineAddressBook for each company based upon the addresslist above.
I run the Set-Mailbox [username] -OfflineAddresBook and point it to their respective address book.
I then run your commands listed above. I even use ADSI edit and check the permissions and see it took effect as expected. I then reboot my Exchange 2007 server to make sure everything is clean and starts fresh.
Now, I create a new profile for one of my users and set it in Cached mode. I then launch Outlook 2007 and it asks for username/password which I enter for this user. It launches Outlook and on the top bar I click on Address book. It lists the Outlook Address Books and Contacts underneath. Then it lists Global Address lists, then it has All Address Lists, which contain BOTH company address lists I have created.
I need this to work for all users, independant if they are in cached mode or not. I understand this website is directly talking about OAB, so if we can get that to work, then I am at least 1/2 way there.
I cannot find anybody anywhere who can make this happen, including Microsoft employee's on the Exchange team I met at a conference a few weeks back. Did microsoft forget to add this functionality, if not, what am I missing in my steps above?
