Default Cached Exchange mode - .prf

Hi,

I want to offer my clients to automaticly setup their Outlook 2003 for use
with our Exchange servers. I'm using .prf files to setup Outlook accounts,
the .prf files has been generated using Office 2003 Ressource kit - Custom
Installation Wizard. In the wizard i selected: Configure Cached Exchange
Mode and checked the: Use Cached Exchange. When the user runs the .prf file
on his computer, everything runs smooth - execpt that Use Cached Exchange
Mode is not checked in the Outlook Setup. I have attached the .prf file for
you to try.

I wonder if this combination might be the problem:=20

[General]
OverwriteProfile=3DAppend

[Service1]
OverwriteExistingService=3DNo

I think that says modify the existing profile, but don't change the =
Exchange service if it already exists.=20

You might want to consider creating a new profile instead of modifying =
the existing one. That will also guarantee that the user seamlessly gets =
a Unicode .ost file (if you're using Exchange 2000/3) without having to =
answer any prompts.=20

I tried generating a new .prf which creates a new profile but still the
cached exchange mode is not set. The .prf file is attached, why is the
option not set?

If i remove the section:

RPCoverHTTPflags=0x002f
RPCProxyServer=www.webexchange.dk
RPCProxyPrincipalName=msstd:www.webexchange.dk
RPCProxyAuthScheme=0x0001

All is good - Outlook is configured with Cached Exchange mode.
