Ken, I do not have any Linux experience, so I can't answer that question for you. I rec'd quite a few requests to show how I connected to Exchange. I will work on the documentation this afternoon.
Quickly, in your case, what version of Exchange are you currently using? 5.5 or 2000? That makes a big difference in the solution... -----Original Message----- From: Westin, Ken [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 12:22 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [CFCDev] [PERIODIC cfcdev DIGEST POSTING] Michael, We are running Exchange here at the university and I proposed this solution, however some of the admins are not using Outlook so the IT manager wanted something separate. However if I show him that we can get Exchange to work and that it might save some time and money I think I can convince him. However since this is a CF list ... I need to do this in CFMX as my main web server is running CFMX on Linux. The java connector sounds like a solution, but would like to find a link to this. Has anybody successfully connected to Exchange via a Linux server ta access calendars? Thanks >We use Exchange 2000 as a database for our event calendars.
