OCS 2007 - Permissions (Domain Admin vs. Normal Users) RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hello ... as a Domain Admin, I can schedule meetings with external folks just fine, they connect fine.  However when  a normal user (internal) tries to schedule a meeting with an external person, on "Send" they are warned that some external contacts may not be able to connect, do you want to continue?  If the choose yes, the meeting is sent and sure enough, the external person gets a 403 error in the pwconsole log and can not connect.  The OCS Default Policy is set to allow anonymous and all users have this Default Policy.

     

    Please help, I'm stumped. 

     

    Thanks.

  • This issue has been resolved ... turns out only the first person who installs the LM 2007 Outlook Add-in gets a registry value set as shown below.  Set this on all other users in my lab, same machine, and everything works great now.

     

    New String Value … HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Live Meeting\Preferences\Server\AdmissionPolicy = anonymous

  • Hello -

     

    I just did another test with a different Domain Admin, turns out he gets the same result as the normal user.  The only ID that works perfectly is my ownID.  I was logged on as myself when I installed the OCS Front-end and Director servers.  The OCS Edge servers are all workgroups, used local admin.

     

    Ideas?

  • Have you run the validation wizards on your OCS server and on your edge servers? Can you post those results?

    Have you tried other Live Meeting policies, besides the default policy?
