I have recently moved our organisation to an OSX server running Mountain Lion. We have a variety of Mac clients within the network that all authenticate to an Open Directory. All clients run Outlook 2011 and connect to a hosted exchange platform. Two 10.6.8
Snow Leopard laptops run both Outlook 2011 and Entourage 2008 side by side and each client connect to different hosted platforms as we run multiple domains and one of our mail servers is not compatible with Outlook 2011 as it is pre Exchange 2007.
We have in the last 24 hours created mobile accounts for the two users who are on the laptops. Since then we are seeing a great deal of sync errors being reported on those clients all relating to the Outlook database which obviously exists effectively
in two places - on the server and on the client machine. Beyond the irritation of being interrupted frequently by the OS telling me it is having trouble with the synchronisation I have not yet noticed any major problem, but my question is whether or not I
have done something that is not supported. Should I be excluding the Outlook database from the sync. Obviously what I am trying to achieve is a situation whereby the laptops can be removed from the office network and used in a remote location without Outlook
complaining that it cannot see its database. Anyone have any thoughts or experience of this?
Many thanks for reading.
