I am not the network guru and they all seem to busy to bother with the little
stuff.
I want to share a contact folder between about 5 users. The server has Small
Business Server 2003.
I am hoping for something like: put the pst file into this shared directory.
I am only looking to share the contacts.
I have not been able to find some step by step instructions anywhere.
Thanks for any help.

See if this article helps:

you can't share pst files.

since you are using exchange server, you can create a public folder to share
them or give the other users access to the contacts folder (if its in one
mailbox).

Hi Anne,

you can share PST files only with 3rd party tools. Exchange Server can not
share PST files.
