Exchange GAL -- allow user to edit own info
I am trying to figure out the best way to allow my users to edit their own contact info. From searching the web, I found that the best way is to use a product called Directory Update. I was hoping that the user could just use Outlook to edit their info. Is this possible, or is Directory Update, my best bet?thanks -- Dee

The best way would be to move to Exchange 2010OWA- Exchange Control Panel (ECP)-Part2-featureshttp://www.exchange-genie.com/2009/08/owa-exchange-control-panel-ecp-part2-features/With Exchange 5.5 to 2003 you could use GALMOD32.EXE, part of one or more of the Exchange Resource Kits.I have not used any of these two tools. But check them out:
