Free busy Issue

Question

I recently setup a lion server and i imported calendar data,  user data via backup and restore,  and wikis via the wikiadmin script.  I am a linux admin mainly butcomfortable enough with macs.  Anyways i noticed that free-busy is not working with the users i imported but is working with newly created users.  I have searched the postgres database and the ldap directory for clues and i even found a resource_property xml entry about set free busy and another xml entry referring to transparent and so i manually entered them into the postgres database but it had no impact.
Any ideas?

I have a very similar issue - the "Availability Check" for all users/locations/resources returns status "available" all the time, regardless of whether there is a conflict or not.
10.7.3 on a MacMini5,2
• OD Master
• iCal
If a users checks their calendar using iCal client, it will show all appointments - it will also correctly show appointments for calendars that this users has read delegation on.  But with 100+ users there is a real need for users to be able to use the "check availability" tool in iCal client as opposed to trying to look at everybody's calendar individually.
I can post any logs/info you think will help, but I've not been able to find anything that even hints at anything wrong aside from a few entries in /Library/Logs/PostgreSQL.log
