I just want to verify that we are on the same page, you did replicate the free/busy public folders, right? Also, which Outlook client? Outlook clients pointing to E2K3 use the free/busy public folder. However, once moved to E2K10, O2K7 and O2K10 will use Exchange web services for free/busy rather than public folders. So, I want to verify that you are testing apples-to-apples here. Jim McBee - Blog - http://mostlyexchange.blogspot.com

Public folders are replicated verified via EMC tools. Autodiscover is working fine now issues. OWA shows free busy information but outlook client says NO FREE Busy information available. What should be the client settings on Exchange 2010 databases for E2K10 mailboxes. Can we point it to E2K3 public folder store? or should it be pointed to E2K10 public folder store. Dont know if there are any other specific tests we can perform for public folders

Just to confirm that you have replicated all the system folders under SCHEDULE+ FREE BUSY, right?

Hi, What's the version of Outlook? If it's Outlook 2003, it uses Public Folder to get the Free/Busy. If it's Outlook 2007, it uses Availability Service to access calendar folder to get free/busy. Thus, we first need to narrow down the cause of the issue. Thanks Allen

We are having the same issue. I'm wondering whether someone from my team posted this notice. sceit

I was not the originator of the issue, but we are having the exact same problem. I did not intend to propose an answer to the last reply above - accidental click - but just to answer that we are running Office 2007. The Free Busy for us needs to cross domains to a 2003 Domain and 2003 Exchange server and it's crossing the domain in the same forest that seems to be the issue. Inside the Exchange 2010 server in our business unit and domain, all free busy works - Free Busy works in the old domain and server - it's looking at free/busy by crossing to other people in our enterprise in another domain in the forest, running Exchange 2003 is what's not working.

We are having the same issue, anyone find a solution? Thanks
