How come others can't see my Free/Buty Time?

My workstation was upgraded to MS Office 2003, SP1, and my Outlook 2003 is
connected to an Echange 2003 server, but now people can't see my Free/Busy
time, like they used to (when I had Outlook 2000).

I've done the "START + RUN" and ran "Outlook.exe /cleanfreebusy", at least a
dozen times (in a period of 24 hours), but people still get that "No
Information" slashes when they try to schedule me for an appointment.

I've gone into the TOOL + OPTIONS + Calendar Options + Free/Busy Options and
tried publishing 36 months of my Free/Busy at an intervals between 3 - 15
minutes, but people still get that "No Information" slashes... I've even
tried publishing 12 months, but I still get the same result.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Kidace
 
I figured it out.

Appearantly, I have to have something in my calendar in order for the
Exchange Server to publish my Free/Busy time.

I just created a single test reminder, and sure enough, 5 minutes later,
others were finally able to view my availabilities.

I hope this helps.
