The software seems ok, it works with all version of Outlook and seems to be free.

I'd like to add a "me too" as being VERY interested in how this goes for you guys. I have this need at my job also and haven't found anything complete enough to fit the bill. Please be sure to post to the ML with what works and what doesn't and what path you guys decide to take!! =:)

In case it helps anyone else, here's the info we'd collected previously:
- SuSE OpenExchange http://www.suse.com/us/business/products/suse_business/openexchange
"The creation of group appointments is not yet possible in MS Outlook." price: $1249
- Exchange4Linux http://www.billworkgroup.org/billworkgroup/home
This one is unclear from documentation if the calendar would fully work. price: GPL
- Bynari InsightServer http://www.bynari.net
Looks like this would work with Outlook 2k but questionable for Outlook XP price: 25 user license: $699.00
- Samsung Contact (formerly HP OpenMail) http://www.samsungcontact.com/
Website is not answering...
I've browsed back through a few month's worth of this lists' archives, but didn't see anything relevant; if anyone recalls a discussion on this and could give a rough timeframe of when it occurred I'll go try to dig it out.
Thanks, Bryce

At OSDL we're trying to come up with a calendaring solution but are running into trouble. We're wondering if others have gone through this before, and could provide some advice.
Up 'til now we've run a pretty much all-Linux shop except for a few desktops. The desktop Windows users now want to be able to do calendaring with Outlook, just like they could with an Exchange setup. While most of the company uses Evolution/Pine/Et al, it's the Outlook users that are going to drive this decision.
The functionality needed:
From inside of outlook: 1) From inside of outlook. Create a meeting by selecting a list of attendees and having the tool (outlook) display the available times.
2) Be able to designate a proxy for a person, that person should get a copy of all meeting requests and be able to respond as the person requested for the meeting.
3) And of course sync up with the individuals outlook/Evolution calendar when they get back online. e.g. You can make appointments without the individual actually being online at the time of the appointment.
Have others been able to fulfil these features using something other than Exchange? #2 looks like it requires something server-side to handle the ACL.
