If that doesn't work, you might also need to do:
Set-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity "conf-room:\non_ipm_subtree\freebusy data" -User default -AccessRights reviewer
I shared this with my parent company and they did an evaluation, but found that its not really useful for them. Initial feedback was " the application supports files only - no other objects (list items, etc.)"
Why aren't you just using one or the other system for students since they're both free?
Because he likes to overcomplicate things apparently.
Only some times.
No, this is a decision made before I ever got here... and as others have mentioned, I have no idea why it is like this, but I know of several schools who do so... It's mind boggling.
I pushed the school I worked at off of GApps pretty fast so I would only have to support one platform.
I wish I had that kind of clout here. At my last job, our students would have gone into open rebellion had we disabled Google. I actually wanted to push everybody to Google, but there was some political crap going on that I wasn't privy to.
Even pushing the students to GApps and staff on O365 is better than the bastardization you're fighting with.
lol. Yeah. The problem is that the students get licensed for O365 and local installs of Office... but... To get to them, they must have a MS-Account. /sigh.
Hence we when we do this one we actually migrate the data to 365 and 2 you don't delete the server for months until you are sure everything is where is should be and working correctly.
Shoot I have a room of servers here from upgrades ... just in case.
I'd have backups of backups before trying something like that.
Just ... because comptuers
YES!!! Yeah no such luck there. No backups at all. Except for I think one user who had put crashplan or something on their machine cause they were paranoid (I think there might have been good reason).
I'm not sure "paranoid" would apply to those users.
@njbair Thanks for joining the community to share your appreciation. I'm glad I posted the steps I took to resolve the issue because if you would have asked me today how I fixed it I'm not sure I could have remembered.
If you run this command again with different addresses/domains, doesnt it overwrite the previous items in the list, unwhitelisting your previous whitelist addresses?
Correct, this is setting the list. You'd have to append the new ones to the command.
Thanks to those of you that offered a suggestion. I built a second RDS server and applied my group policy and browsing was fine. I then started to think about what I needed to do to move it in to production and replace the one that had the browsing issue. Then it hit me.... I have load balancing on my SonicWall. RDS is mapped through the firewall on https. Therefore requests that went out over https could go out over either interface, but always came back on one. This is why it would sometimes work. This is also why most other sites would work, but https (in this case Office 365 which always goes over https) would only work once in a while. Adding a route to force all traffic from the RDS server out over the interface that traffic will come in on fixed the problem.
I created a shared mailbox and then I manually added the contacts (there are only 14 of them) to it. This makes the contacts visible to any user with access to the shared mailbox. However, I also wanted to used these "shared" contacts in some distribution groups, which doesn't appear to be possible. 😞
