Hello Everyone

I am having a problem with NetFolder.

I am running a small network of 6 machine plus server. Server is using NT4, user machien are using Win XP Pro.

All users have the ability to view each other calendars, except one user. After sending invitations to all users all seems ok. Users accept invitation and the owners machine starts sending data to viewers. Then with out any intervention the owners machine send a message to viewers that it is no longer sending updates. All users that where in the list of members to view the calendar are removed from the list and no further data flows between the owners PC and others.

I have tried to repair the office install, I have renamed a whole series of files as directed from Microsoft.

Neither fo these worked. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

Nick
 
This may not be a big help, but I also had problems using netfolders to share a calendar. basically, NetFolders just isn't reliable enough. Switch to Echange Server or use another calendar appliction.

Believe it or not, we're using the AOL calendar and it's less of a hassle than Outlook without Exchange. The only problem is that Exchange can be very expensive.

good luck.
