Hi,

I'm using MOC 2005 with LCS 2005/SP1 and am noticing the following behaviour:

- The status of all my contacts is showing up fine.
- My personal status seems to be showing incorrectly.

With respect to my personal status, I sign-in fine but my status stays at
"offline". I try to switch my status to "online" (or any of the other status
settings) but they seem to have no affect...

The only thing different about my personal setup is that my machine does not
belong to the domain in which LCS is installed. I simply authenticate on MOC
2005 startup when it challenges me for my credentials.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

LCS 2005 Enterprise or Standard?
The one time that I see this the most is when people connect directly to the
LCS server, via server name or IP, when the LCS server is in an LCS 2005
enterprise pool. (Note: If you are connecting to an Access Proxy, then you
need the AP name and not the IP).

When using LCS 2005 Enterprise Edition it is very important to create the
DNS record for the pool address and point the client to the pool address
rather than directly to the server. This is important even in a single
server environment. If you have a single server then you should create an A
record for the pool that has the same IP as Server.

Ex (A Records)
Server1.domain.local - 10.10.10.105
Pool1.domain.local - 10.10.10.105

Ex with a load balancer (F5 or similar device)
Ex (A Records)
Server1.domain.local - 10.10.10.105
Server1.domain.local - 10.10.10.106
Pool1.domain.local - 10.10.10.110 (Note: This would be the virtual IP,
or VIP, assigned to the load balancer.)

Meni's LCS guide site has a quick overview of this process:
