RE: Question regarding Ed Crowley Server Move Method
this issue wasn't how many, since I don't have more than 100. Still, it's the Microsoft Way to make things difficult, by not encouraging their programmers to work with their product advisory people more closely so features that are DESIRED and NEEDED are included in products. Many would disagree with my stance, saying MS relies on third-party developers to add the functionality, which I agree with, but the folks in Redmond, WA sometimes have their heads up their arses, IMHO. I went ahead and set up replication manually for all the public folders, then went about re-homing each folder (again, manually). The replication part was easy, since it can be done from the Public Info Store properties sheet on the server itself (Instances tab) but re-homing wasn't so keen, since the ability to pass a re-home down to sub-folders isn't an option.
