Free/Busy Slowness

Hi All,

We are running Outlook 2003 sp2, Exchange 2003 SP2 - I have a user who has
the proper permissions to update other users' calendars - she does this by
going to File > Open > other users' folder > Calendar. The other user's
calendars take anywhere from 15-60 seconds before it is fully populated and
she can see all the entries. If she tries to make a change or add an entry
before it is fully populated, she receives an error. Once it is fully
populated, it works fine.

Is there any way to adjust this? They are not in cached mode, so I would
think it should be almost instantaneous(?).

Thanks in advance!!
 
It is a network latency problem - check with your network admin. Free/busy is stored on either the Exchange server or if not using one, the server where you chose to populate your free/busy information.

I thought this as well, but I don't believe this to be the case. I was just
provided with some new info - when the user is added to the exchange admins
group in AD, the free/busy info populates instantly, but when she is removed,
there is latency?
I there some kind of authentication that is happening that is causing the
latency?

thanks!!
