Non user-specific Install...
Is it possible to install Outlook 2003 on a workstation so that multiple
people can utilize the application? Right now, I have a workstation set up that simply boots to the desktop with a generic user...I've bypassed the login and just went straight to the desktop. What I'd like to be able to do is have this workstation set up so that anyone can just walk up to it and check their email. This Outlook installation would point to an Exchange server. Thanx. |

If you wish to use the Outlook client, you will still need to know who will want to check their mail so that you can create separate mail profiles for each of them. I think your particular situation is a good place to use Outlook Web Access. -- Brian Tillman |

Yes, I'm using OWA now, but it just doesn't have all the functionality of the
full Outlook client. I was hoping there would be a way to install the client without having to deal with profiles. To be able to have the users simply log in and be presented with their folders and calendars via the Exchange server. Thanx.

It is the profile that hold the information about the server - its name, for example. WIthout a profile, there is no Outlook connectivity of any kind. However, if you have Exchange and Exchange expects a username/password to allow access, then a single mail profile on the client end may suffice. Exchange would prompt for the mailbox credentials when Outlook starts. -- Brian Tillman |
