Outlook Terminal Server
The "Outlook Terminal Server" was created specifically for instances where people need to configure a setting only available using an Outlook client and either do not have access to an Outlook client installed on a PC or if a user's PC login does not allow them to configure Exchange settings such as delegate access. Instructions for connecting to the Outlook Terminal Server are available at http://help.mail.colostate.edu/tt_outlook_remote.aspx
Common Task Performed on the Outlook Terminal Server
- Configure Delegate Access: To setup delegate access, connect to the Outlook Terminal server and follow the steps outlined in the Delegate section (starting on Page 9) of the Outlook 2003 - Calendar Training Handout (PDF).
- Import Calendar Only Rules: If you have selected the
Central Exchange for Calendar Onlyoption from eID, you should import the Exchange rules for Calendar-only users - this is a one-time setup that must be done from Outlook. The reasoning behind this is explained further at Import Exchange rules for "calendar-only users". Please note, however, that the process varies slightly if you are importing the rule using the Outlook Terminal Server. Please refer to the instructions in theImport Calendar Only Rulesfile on the desktop when you login to the Outlook Terminal Server.
