Hi,
Yes you need to install the System Manager for 2003. I haven't had experience with this unfortunately.
On a 2007 system I would give myself full mailbox access via the local console installed on my PC, then log in to OWA using my credentials, then change the URL to point to the other user mailbox, then set it in the options. You can't change the out of office directly in the console, but it may be an option in Systems Manager under 2003.
We also have a product to do this for us with the helpdesk called Symprex out of office manager, which can be installed on the server or remotely, which makes this a lot more easier. It could be something like this that they are using.
Do they have any procedures for this type of work?
Thanks.
Andrew.

Hi,
We're running Exchange 2003. The console is for Exchange 2007.
I see there's a Exchange Systems Manager for 2003. Have you used this?
Cheers,
Barry.

Can you install the exchange console locally? That would be the prefered option.

Hi folks,
Firstly let me thank you all for your feedback on my meeting I was due
to have on Tuesday. I've saved these. The meeting hasn't taken place
yet.
I've just gotten a request to set a user's Out Of Office. How our Net
Admin normally does this is RDP into Exchange. I don't' currently have
any RDP licences for JAWS. Is there another way I can do this from my
own computer? I'm trying to find a solution before I speak to my
Manager. I'd rather bring him a solution than leave it in his hands to
work out. I am being promised as soon as the Net Admin gets back I will
be granted Administrator privileges.
We do have Spiceworks installed on our servers, and I've found this
article on how I can do it through there.

How would the rest of you Sys Admins go about this?
Regards,
Barry.
