Howdie folks!

1.

a client of mine is a budding startup, and they got to the point where
they no longer want their mail services hosted, but locally installed
and providing the full outlook experience. In simple words - calender
sync, common folders. stuff that's not readily available with IMAP
alone. The offer for Exchange will entail buying two servers and lots of
software licences and I'm hoping not to go there. I've looked into
Open-Xchange (Ugly, community version doesn't support their outlook
connector and no community connector to be found), Scalix (Ugly and
expensive) and Zimbra (Donno if ugly, but still pretty expensive).

Everyone tells me that free/busy files on a samba share don't really
work. any other solutions or maybe recommendatiopns from a real-life
experiance with the above three?

2.

Same client wants standard images for its R&D machines and desktops -
all CentOS (and maybe windows laptops too down the line). Two common
aproaches for that are Xcat and OSCAR, and I also had experiance with
OpenQRM, but that product is EOL. Can anyone recommend one over the
other, or a different oe altogether?

Thanks,
Ira.
