Re: pfdavadmin to add permissions



It is possible with SP2 to now propagate permissions, however if you
did not create one root folder at the top then you're stuck since you
cannot apply permissions at the Public Folder virtual tree. If you do
not have many root folders that you it's ok, if you have many then you
will have to use PFdavadmin to perform a custom bulk operation which
you can do at the Public Folder Tree.

applying that real soon.

The pfdavadmin documentation is quite good.
Note also that if apply SP2 to Exchange, there are some improvements
with the pf settings wizard that may eliminate the need to use
pfdavadmin.

I just need to add one group to all the public folders without changing any
other permissions. Cna this be done with PFDAVADMIN.EXE?

I am running Exchange server 2003 with SP1.

Thanks,
