Hi
Looking into this issue I have found that there are 2 ways of booking resources in Exchange 2003 / Outlook. 1) Direct booking via Outlook. (Which is how we are doing it now) 2) Use the Auto Accpet Agent. This article http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2006/02/22/420275.aspx seems to describe the different ways very well and the Auto Accept agent would seem to overcome our problem. (People opening Meeting room calandars directly and booking them) Has anyone got any other comments that may help us to decide which way to go?

Try logging as the resource account via outlook or owa you may be able to see who booked it.

I HIGHLY recommend using ERM (Exchange Resource Manager). I believe it is free if you only need to monitor 2 resources.

Hi We use meeting rooms as a resource (As I presume many of you do) to allow people to book meeting rooms via there Outlook Calandar when scheduling meetings. We have had a user access a meeting room calandar directly and book a private appointment. Because the meeting has been booked as Private no one can see who has booked the room. 1) I need to know who has booked it. 2) I need to stop this happening in the future. We don't mind people viewing the meeting room calandars directly but they must not be able to book them directly. What permisions should I have on the meeting room mailbox that will allow people to view and book meeting rooms as a resourcethrough their Outlook when scheduling a meeting but not be able to edit / book the meeting by directly opening the meeting room calandar via Outlook Calandar, File > Open other Peoples Folder > Calandar. Can anyone help please?
