Distributing Contact Groups via Lync 2010

UncleScar — Thu, 10 May 2012 09:00:42 +0000

As part of my ongoing Lync 2010 deployment I've come across a few oddities in Microsofts logic as they've moved from OCS -> Lync, one of which is the removal of the LCSAddContacts script, thankfully Jeff Guillet has come up with a little tool to replace this functionality.

It's not the cleanest of workarounds but it will allow you to distribute a group of contacts to users within your domain(s).

You can find it here: The EXPTA blog: Introducing LyncAddContacts!.

So, this pretty much sums up the epiphany I had at about 16 years old, I just wish certain people I know would have the same one. Oh and those OWS eejits too.

I've not had a chance to read the article yet to see if I agree or not but I still found the front page amusing enough and thought it'd be rude not to share:

For anyone who does a lot of work with Remote Desktop (RDC) through windows and is fairly old-school in their ways, preferring the MMC to the RDC client, then have a look at this:
