PC WSPlus: Viewing Free/Busy on Remote Postoffice Via Async (132209)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Schedule+ 1.0
  • Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows 1.0a

This article was previously published under Q132209

SUMMARY

With Schedule+, you can View Free/Busy times on a remote postoffice via modem or an asynchronous connection if the Schedule Distribution program (SCHDIST.EXE) is used on both sides of the asynchronous connection.

MORE INFORMATION

SCHDIST.EXE processes the Free/Busy information into .POF files. SCHDIST.EXE then prepares the .POF files for distribution as it converts them into attachments within Mail messages. The External Mail program (EXTERNAL.EXE) is then responsible for delivering the messages to the other postoffices.

If users on a postoffice are defined via the External-Admin option of the Mail Administrator program (ADMIN.EXE) as direct (or indirect) via modem, the following access privileges do not work:
  • View Free/Busy times with dynamic connections.
  • Access privileges of Read Appointments and Tasks or higher.
These access privileges require a persistent network connection.
