Sharing my calendar with a non-Exchange user

H

HJD

All of my appointments and travel schedule is on Outlook, and I want to give
my husband access to open my calendar. He's not a user in my company's
Exchange address book (although when I'm home, he and I are on the same home
network). Is there a way to allow him to open my calendar for read access?
Right now I'm just "inviting" him to the entries that have my travel
schedule. Thanks.

I very seriously doubt your employer would appreciate a non-employee with access to the company's servers.

Unfortunately, your response did not answer the question. Assuming that the
employer doesn't care about security, how would this be done? My wife's
employer has Exchange Server, and she already access to her calendar (and
email) on her pda. It would seem a fairly simple configuration to push the
calendar info to a public calendar (.ics) that could be synced with Outlook
2007 (which is what I use at home). I've read through the links, and I
can't find a simple answer. Can I go into Outlook on the Exchange Server
and have it publish to a public calendar?

Sorry - I will not post information that can be used to circumvent any security (or lack thereof) from a company's internal mail server.

Try someone with fewer scruples.

I wasn't asking anyone to give me information that could circumvent
security. My question was whether Exchange Server could publish to a public
calendar. Surely this information isn't a secret?

YOu are asking whether an internal server (Exchange) can publish to an external (Public) calendar. While it is possible, the odds of the company configuring Exchange to do so are highly unlikely.
