Shouldn't my Exchange 5.5 server allow PUBLIC calendars to be viewed by the public over OWA??

[Dave Niemeyer]

We have presently an Exchange ver. 5.5 server at our site and I can't view
the PUBLIC CALENDARS there via Outlook Web Access. I get an error message
at every machine I've been at, "Unable to view default formats and
patterns." And after that it tries to create a frames or table web page
with errors inside it, "Unable to render this view424Object required ."

You can see for yourself at www.biggs.org/exchange and once there, go to
the PUBLIC ACCESS link (cancel if asked to log in, shouldn't need to) and
then click on the "BIGGS HIGH SCHOOL" calendar and there you go. I'm
wondering, does ANYBODY out there use public folders and calendars via OWA
such as what I'd like to do? Does it work on Exchange 5.5?? How bout
Exchange 2003?

My recollection is that Exchange 5.5 supports display only of the user's Calendar folder, not public calendar folders. The ability to display public contacts and calendar folders was added in Exchange 2000.
