We want it to be manditory that all users in the organization shares their calendars as read-only to everyone. We have a script we found that sets permissions on the calendars and we run it nightly. Recently we've discovered that new users Calendars are still unable to be read. I ran the script manually and it didn't error, it appeared to complete but it didn't change the permissions. Is there a better way to do this?

You can add the permission setting to the new mailbox creation process. As to why the script doesn't work, it's hard to say since you didn't post the script.Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems."

No I ran that command and nothing changed.

PFDavAdmin might be an option for you. You can configure calendars in bulk and I believe there may be scripting options.
