Video demos for running Exchange and Outlook DST 2007 tools

That's brilliant, thank you! (I'm already done the updates so it's too late for me, but now I have somewhere to direct others.)

May I make this video available to my users, either by linking to it or by hosting it on our organization's support site?

LDP - sure, go for it.

Linking might work better to get most up to date info as we are looking to post updated videos for v2 version of the tool and then I plan to comment the post to include links to that.

These walkthroughs are extremely helpful. Thank you very much.

Where can I get the MsExTmz.exe referenced? I can only find MsExTmz.msi linked off the site which does not include MsExTmzcfg.msi. I am following the link from

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=930879 which takes me to

I see the Exchange tool V2 has been posted, but I didnt see any update on what has changed. Anyone know what changed or where the info is available

The MSEXTMZ 2.0 tool has indeed been released. The KB article (930879) has been updated, unfortunately, it is missing a very important piece! It reads:

"If you are using direct booking or the Auto Accept Agent, follow these steps to update the resource mailboxes."

There are no steps listed after this section, it jumps right to Public Folders. Can someone alert the KB article writers, and have them update that section? We are rolling out the updates this weekend. This section is very important as we have numerous resources using AutoAccept.

Rob D and MikeD,

What has been posted is the Exchange tool v2, yes. However, this is not what will help with resource mailboxes and is NOT the tool that will help with the resource mailboxes. the Exchange tool brings a bit more robustness in UI, logging etc - pretty much all of which you can see if you run the tool. No more need for server LegacyExchangeDN for example or Outlook registry path.

The updated Outlook tool is scheduled to come out next week, and that will provide additional relief for PF based calendars and recource mailboxes.

Thanks for that information. We have scheduled this Sunday for our update. Is there any chance that the updated tool will be released before then?

The original webcast mentioned that the server you run the Exchange Calendar Update Tool has to be in the time zone in which you are performing updates for.  So, we would have to parse out the users in different time zones.

The tool seems to address multiple time zones for mailboxes on the same server (ie. a server in PA that has users in NY, PA, MN, etc.).

Is this correct?
