Disable Internet Calendar Publishing

 

Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3, Exchange Server 2010 SP2

When you disable a sharing policy used for defining Internet calendar publishing, users who are provisioned to use the policy won't be able to share calendar information with the Anonymous Internet domain specified in the policy. However, you can't delete the sharing policy until all the users who are provisioned to use the policy have the sharing policy setting removed from their mailboxes.

Note

When the sharing policy is disabled, users provisioned to use the policy will continue to share information until the Sharing Policy Assistant runs. To specify how often the Sharing Policy Assistant runs, use the Set-MailboxServer cmdlet with the SharingPolicySchedule parameter.

To fully disable Internet calendar publishing, you should also disable the Microsoft Office Outlook Web App virtual directory used for calendar publishing. Doing this prohibits access to the published calendar links previously shared by your Exchange organization users with external Internet users.

To learn more about Internet calendar publishing and sharing policies, see Understanding Federated Delegation.

Step 1: Use the EMC or the Shell to disable the sharing policy for Internet calendar publishing

Use the EMC

  1. In the console tree, navigate to Organization Configuration > Mailbox.

  2. In the result pane, click the Sharing Policies tab.

  3. In the result pane, click the sharing policy you set up for Internet calendar publishing.
