But i have no idea about both of them. If any one can help me, please do sir. I will be very thankful to you all.
From your mails I still don't understand if you have client linux boxes where you want to run Outlook, or you have a linux server box where you want to place the shared calendar, with Outlook clients. Anyway, for each situation:
1. Windows Server running Exchange with Linux clients running Outlook: you need some piece of software that lets you run Outlook on Linux. You may try Wine, CrossOver Linux (from CodeWeavers)...2. Server running Linux with Windows clients running Outlook: you need a groupware server that lets you use Outlook as a client. OpenGroupware and Kolab comes to mind, there are commercial plugins that lets you connect Outlook to both of them.
3. Neither of the two above: if what you really want to do is to share calendars, but you may have linux on the server and client side and use other software instead of Outlook, take a look at the list of supported clients for the groupware server you choose. Novell Evolution and KDE Kontact are both groupware clients with similar interface and functionality resembling Outlook, and they can connect to OpenGroupware and Kolab IIRC.
HTH, best regardsJose

I am not clear if you are asking for a linux M$ Outlook compatible server, or 
a linux M$ Outlook compatible client solution. Have a look at this in case it 
helps:

 Hi Mick,
   Thanks for your reply. My main concern is, my clients
 need calendar sharing on linux box with MS outlook. So, i am not sure
 whether i have to use M$ Outlook compatible server or M$ Outlook compatible
 client solution. Please guide me

The link I shared below shows you how to save a clients Outlook files on an 
ftp server (this can be a Linux or M$ Windows ftp server), which can then be 
accessed by other Outlook mail clients for sharing purposes either 
anonymously or by providing a password.

I hope this helps.
