Public Contacts on iPhone with ActiveSync problem.

Hello everyone,

First of all I'm going to explain a little about the situation we currently have.

_____

So, the managers in this company told us they wanted a "Public Contacts" list within Outlook, which could be synchronized with the company iPhones via ActiveSync.

What we did was make a new AD user account, which is in linked to an Exchange user mailbox. We gave our employees full "Manage" rights on this mailbox and added the "Public Contacts" list in their Outlook.

The problem then was, that they could edit the contacts.

_____

So we started to test with certain rights within Outlook. We deleted the employees from the "Full Manage permissions" list within the exchange mailbox and gave them view rights on the Public Contact-list within Outlook. (Commentator rights)

When we did this, they could view the contacts, but they could not edit the contacts. This was exactly what we wanted, so we started to test with the synchronisation with ActiveSync (iPhone)

We added the exchange mailbox in the iPhone and we could see all the contacts.

However, the only problem that we have now is that our employees can edit the contacts on their iPhones, while they CAN'T edit the contacts within Outlook. (on PC)

_____

I hope someone could help us find a solution for this permissions problem.

They can't edit the contacts on the computer, but they can on the iPhone. :(

If something is not clear, please let me know.

Thanks in advance! :)
