My friend uses MS-Outlook to do all their contact management and all the other stuff that isnt really related to email. They actually have two computers networked and dont share the data from the 'database'(wrong term maybe) and have two sets of data, one on each PC. Can we set up outlook so that all the data is stored on the Linux Box (samba will do this) in one file that is accessible by both boxes and will do the file locking, etc that is necessary. Thanks
