See this is where things are confusing....
According to this link (doc)
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997617.aspx
It states for Step 3 (Optional)
----------------------------------
"You do not need to create replicas for the offline address book (OAB) or
free/busy system folders. When you install the first Exchange 2007 server,
Exchange creates the replicas. "
I have not configured any Office Address Books, in fact I was messing around
some time ago, but ended up deleting them...yet there are still entries for
the public folders.
I guess my question is, if I do not create any replica's ... from this point
for public folders, what will happen?
