I would like to share an Outlook calendar over the web, but have it so that
users can only view appointments - they cannot create or edit them. Also, i
would like the calendar to automatically update (as though they have a
"subscripton" to the calendar).

I have tried to accomplish this using a WebDAV server, but it is not read
only, and dosen't seem to be updating.

Thanks

everyone uses outlook 2007?

the calendar should be read only unless the others have read-wrote
permission to the webdav folder. it will only update hourly - so give it
time.

So far on the one's i've tried it on they are all Outlook 2007 - Will that be
necessary? There may be some users that have earlier versions of Outlook.

I have explicitly set Deny Write permissions to the IUSR_COMPUTER account on
the folder.

Is it correct that to share it, a user simply has to browse to the website
and click on the ICS file that is listed? Or is there something else?

thanks for your reply

I think 2003 can view it but I don't think it will update on 2003.
