Hello, we'd like to be able to have a shared calendar where we can keep track
of our employee's vacation schedules in one area. What is the best way to do
this? Do I just created a new user in Exchange and give everyone "Author"
permissions to add their own but not be able to change anyone else's or is
there a better way?

Public Folders works well - For example, they can add a 1 week Event in
their Calendar, then drag with the Right Mouse button to the Public Folder
and Copy it there. Make sure they write their Name in the Subject - so you
know who's on leave! You can also edit the Labels in the Public Folder so
the colours mean something useful. eg Red = maternity leave, Blue = long
service leave.

I hope this helps you at least a little bit!
