How often do the permissions for public folders syncronize from the exchange server 2003 to outlook? We have public folder favorites in Outlook butpermission changesare not syncronizing in a very timely manner from the exchange server. Is there a setting to control this from the exchange server?

Depends on the size of your organization.

Tthe size of the org doesn't really have any direct impact stodj. It's about the replication schedule and topology (and db size). "Permissions replicate with the other data in the folder, so it's all part of the same bundle that goes out. So whatever your schedule for everything else is, that's what the schedule for permissions will be." http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=%2Fservicedesks%2Fwebcasts%2Fen%2Fwc032001%2Fwct032001.asp You can adjust the overall replication in the properties of the public folder itself (in esm)
