Log in as the CMG account to be used with the F/B Connector (if you haven’t already). Then, in Internet Options (via Windows Control Panel or IE Tools):

In Settings, scroll down to User Authentication | Logon, and click the radio button for Automatic logon with current user name and password. |

Add the Exchange Server EWS and Autodiscover URLs to the Trusted Sites. |

By default, CMG is installed with the log42net utility to generate log files of CMG components’ system activity. This information is critical to diagnosing any problems that may arise. Logging is enabled by default for all CMG components.
The default configurations will be suitable for almost all organizations and circumstances, but you can customize logging features if you like. The log42net utility may be configured to work a particular way with each CMG component. Configuration instructions are nearly identical from one component to another, so we present those details separately, in Appendix C of the CMG User Guide (not in this FBC Configuration Guide).

At the CMG Web Server, open PowerShell and type: Set-CmgGroupWiseFreeBusyConfig -SmtpDomainMappings <equivalentDomain>=<primaryDomain> |
And be sure to repeat the cmdlet for each equivalent domain.
Use CMG’s Management Console to configure the Free/Busy Connector’s components—to identify the participating servers and their locations, register the necessary account access credentials, and set other operating parameters and preferences. See chapter 4 of the CMG User Guide for field notes and application notes for each screen in the F/B Connector Management Console.
The public-folders configuration for the FBC requires the corresponding DC connector to be configured, for both the Provision and Update functions, with an attribute assignment that matches the AD extensionAttribute you designate for this purpose. (The attribute and its value are designated in the F/B Connector Management Console, in the Exchange Public Folder Writer-AD Contacts screen, as described in the User Guide.)
NOTE: GroupWise sometimes mistakenly generates F/B queries for addresses in the form user-domain-com@domain.com (instead of user@domain.com). Queries to such addresses will fail if AD does not recognize the address, so be sure to add that address form as an alias in AD for each Exchange user. |
This procedure begins with the assumption that you have already reviewed the introductory chapter of this FBC Configuration Guide to Determine your FBC scenario. This chapter explains how to configure the FBC and the coexisting environments for F/B scenario #4, specified above.
