Free/busy not showing up for exchange 2007 users

We have an implementation of co-existance of Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2003
during our migration. We are having a problem with users already migrated
to exchange 2007 not being able to see the free/busy of users still on
Exchange 2003. I have created a public folder storage group and a public
folder DB in 07 and then created a replica from 03 to 07, however overnight
nothing replicated and still can not see the free/busy.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Try this article:

My case is different:

- I could see free/busy info for all users (E2K3 and E2K& based) from users
created on E2K7

- I could see all free/busy info from mailboxes on E2K3 about users on E2K3

- I cannot see this info from E2K3 based users for those created on E2K7.

Obviously E2K7 Availability service doesn't publish its free/busy info to
public folders and don't replicate this back to E2K3 users. Any idea.

I probably need to be more clear on my issue.

I installed Exchange 2007 in an existing Exchange 2003 environment, so we
can co-exist. When I move a user from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007, the
user can not see the Free/busy from the other users still on Exchange 2003.
However the users from Exchange 2003 can see the schedules of the users on
Exchange 2007. I do not not get any errors on the either exchange boxes.
Also I created Public folders on Exchange 2007 and can see the public
folders in the exchange 2003 system manager. But can not replica the
free/busy to it.

Hopefully that is a clearier picture.

1. When you look 2003 ESM public folders\schedule + free busy and look
at the replication tab of the free busy instances ie. EX:/o=company/
ou=org/
does it show your Exchange 2007 server?

2. Verify that webservicesvirtualdirectory is set

Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory | Select name, *url* | fl

Verify that your internal URL is correct; more than likely should be:

Name : EWS (Default Web Site)
InternalUrl : https://CASSERVER/EWS/Exchange.asmx

We have fresh installation of Exchange 2007 along with Outlook 2007 as
clients. Installation has been done by a third party vendor. And he is not
any more available. We are not sure how the installation has been done.

Anyhow, the problem we have is that users can not see Free/busy of other on
outlook 2007 when they do scheduling. However, free/busy is showing when
they use OWA.

Anyone, can help me by sending procedure to check up Exchange 2007
installation or what is standards requirement to achieve that.

Your help is vey much appreciated
