[PS] C:\>Get-OfflineAddressBook | Move-OfflineAddressBook -Server EXCH-2007 -confirm:$false

WARNING: Do not turn off public folder publishing for offline address book
(OAB) "\Default Offline Address List" before it is generated on the target
server "EXCH-2007". If you turn off public folder publishing prematurely, the
entire OAB will be downloaded for all users who are associated with this OAB.

In the Exchange Management Console the check box to enable web distribution is greyed out.

To resolve this issue use the Set-OfflineAddressBook cmdlet to apply the mandatory properties to the OAB object.

[PS] C:\>Set-OfflineAddressBook "Default Offline Address List" -ApplyMandatoryProperties

When viewed in the Exchange Management Console the check box is now available.

You can now tick the box and add OAB virtual directories for web distribution.
