Jeff Schertz is a brilliant resource. Yes, I’m a fan. His recent post on getting the SoundPoint phones working under Lync was invaluable – and the extension dialling one even better! I was actually quite impressed when I managed to get my sample IP650 working. Consultative transfer on a handset under Lync has to …
Hooray! The Reskit’s been updated and ABSconfig.exe now remembers the radio button settings! (I blogged it way back here & originally here). The new version takes the Reskit to 4.0.7577.197, and can be downloaded from here. Note that you’ll need to uninstall the old version – this update won’t just go in over the top …

A friend of ours recently popped back to Oz from his current home in Paris and cruelly brought us a jar of Speculoos paste as a present. If you’ve ever coffeed in Amsterdam or thereabouts, they probably put one of those yummy cinnamon biscuits in the saucer. And this jar is full of something …
Having been inundated with Lync work since it was released over a year ago, I’ll admit to having not paid a lot of attention to OCS. Once area where OCS continues to play a part in Lync installations is the IM functionality we now enjoy through Exchange 2010 OWA. Those are actually OCS components you’re …
