It most certainly does work. You've done it wrong. I'm doing it with several servers and 50+ companies per server. It's how hosted Exchange works. If you delete the GAL, you'll generate errors on every single client computer using Outlook (synchronization errors) and in your event log. Whether those are spurious or not - probably. But I've seen it have a negative impact on RUS working at all. -----Original Message----- From: Lim, Arthus T.

What will happen when I delete the default Global Address List from the ESM and create new Address lists under GAL? -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

Not for the faint of heart. (I say that a lot, don't I?) :-) Basically, remove "Everyone" and "Authenticated Users" from the security tab of the GAL. Add a "Deny" ACE for the group you don't want to use it. Create a new GAL. On it's security tab, remove "Everyone" and "Authenticated Users". Add a "Full Control" for the group you want to use it (which should match the one above). Actually, the minimum set of permissions is: Read, Execute, Read Permissions, List Contents, List Object, and Open Address List; if you don't like FC. -----Original Message----- From: Lim, Arthus T. [mailto:alim@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, October 04, 2004 4:08 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Access to Global Address List http://www.MSExchange.org/ Is it possible to limit the access of people from viewing the Global Address List or the Address Book from Microsoft Outlook? Let's say I only want a group of people to view a particular address list, others should not see it. Is this possible? ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: michael@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: alim@xxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: michael@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
