Ben,

Then you are saying that I need to give them Custom privileges with Create,
Edit Own and Delete Own checked and nothing else?

Subject: RE: Conference Room Auto Accept

If you're using OL2000 (or later) all you need to do is create a profile
that uses the Conference Room Mailbox, log in as the account that is the
owner of that mailbox (I assume Exchange 5.5?), start Outlook with that
Conference Room profile, go to Tools | Options | Calendar Options and you
should find a "Resource Scheduling" button (if I recall correctly).  Click
it and you'll get a dialog box with options to automatically accept
meetings, decline conflicting meetings, etc.

You'll also need to go to the Calendar folder and give the users you want to
be able to schedule the conference room permissions to the folder - they
need to be able to add, edit and delete at least their own items (they don't
need to be able to view the folder).

When you're done, close Outlook and you should never need to log in or set
any delegates for conference room scheduling again.  You don't need to keep
any workstations running or logged in just to accept meeting requests - the
server will handle all of it.

I'm typing this from memory, so I may have missed a step or something there,
but that's basically what you need to do and it should be fairly easy for
you.

Aloha,
