Outlook 2010 Calendar Sync

I have a user who belongs to two different Exchange Organizations.  We configured Outlook 2010 to connect to both Exchange servers, but now I need his calendar to synchronize between the two as well.  His Free/Busy info for one company isn't available to the other, so scheduling meetings still requires going back and forth, which I'd like to eliminate.

Has anyone configured this before?  If so, did you need to use 3rd party software?

The Free/Busy informatin is stored in mailbox. We cannot get the solution from Outlook client site.

If you want to sync the Cross-Forest Free/Busy, this article may help you: http://blog.exchange-addict.com/2012/11/cross-forest-freebusy-simple-version_13.html

Or you may use 3rd party software such as Dell's solution: http://www.quest.com/collaboration-services/

Unfortunately, this does not resolve the issue, as it exposes the entire domain.  I have a single user that I need to do this for.  The best/easiest method for me would be some form of rule or sync on his computer that is running Outlook, so that anytime a calendar item is added, removed, or changed, the calendar on the secondary exchange server is updated as well and vice-versa.  Having complete access to domain-wide free/busy is not needed nor wanted.
