To set a resource calendar (e.g., conference room), the resource owner must first sign onto the resource and then follow the steps above.
Note: People given rights/permissions to your calendar can still see it but they cannot do a Free/Busy search against it. If there are already appointments on your calendar before these settings are changed, those appointments will still be searchable (i.e., entries added after the change will not be searchable).
