How to import CONTACTS from local PST to exchange server ?

[johnpau80]

We have an exchange 2003 server and some of the sales accounts are set with POP3 clients on laptops which are on road most of the time.

The contacts which are saved in local PST file on the laptops(outlook client) does not show up in the exchange server when they use OWA.

Is there a tool which will import all my contacts and calendaring stuff from the local pst file to the EXCHANGE server.


Thanks

Do they have VPN capabilities?

Nope.

Heres what I would do:

Have them create a pst file and export their contacts to it. Save the pst file to media or a secure transport server (ftp). Log in to a dedicated email workstation and import the pst file into Outlook for each profile/user.

Im sure there is a better method out there, just cant think of it right now.
