Office Communicator Web Access - Where to find it

Question
-
Hi ,
I have found the Office Communicator WA for Office Comminicator 2005. Is there also a 2007 version? We have installed the webcomponents and are able to log on to the webschedular. Are there any other components (like i.e. the communicator web access) installed with the web components?
Does anyone has experience with the web version of Office Communicator 2005. Is it working well with OCS?
Cheers,

--> In order to install CWA you need to start OCS2007 Setup and choose Deploy other server roles/Deploy Communicator Web Access.
We have installed the webcomponents and are able to log on to the webschedular. Are there any other components (like i.e. the communicator web access) installed with the web components?
--> No it is not installed with the Web components and need to be deployed separately.
Does anyone has experience with the web version of Office Communicator 2005. Is it working well with OCS?I am not sure what you mean with "web version" of communicator 2005 but in order to be able to use the supported webbrowsers for IM with OCS ( Communicator Web Access ) you have to deploy CWA 2007. You cannot use CWA 2005 which which is used with LCS 2005 SP1 in conjunction with OCS 2007.
Please refer to the public beta documentation which can be found here:
The documentation also contains the Microsoft Office Communicator Web Access(2007 release) Planning and Deployment Guide which will help you to deploy CWA in your environment.
Hope this helps

Thank you very much. I was using the documentation of the private beta and couldn't find anything about the communicator web access in there. The documentation of the public beta is more complete.
Cheers,
