hey monks,

i still cannot seem to get an outlook calendar to read over IIS. basically i have IIS installed on my computer and anon access off, with Integrated Windows Authentication on. this setup works if my user is logged into my computer. I can view the calendar fine.

When I try to view the calendar from another computer on the domain, i get an error here: 
$ol = Win32::OLE->new('Outlook.Application', sub { $_[0]->Quit })or di
+e "error: $!\n";

I have outlook reading from a PST file that is in a folder "C:\tmp". is there a way in the new method to specify a PST file, like: "\\mycomputer\tmp\outlook.pst" ? i know you can do: 
$ol = Win32::OLE->new(['computername','Outlook.Application'], sub { $_
+[0]->Quit })or die "error: $!\n";

[download]
but that hasnt worked either. i have read alot about DCOM and MAPI, but nothing seems to be making sense with this project. i am not quite sure how to let others read the file. i think that it should be able to work. i have another post relating to this here and the OLE documentation is here.

please let me know if you need more information. i am just really confused on this, any help would be great. thanks.
