The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Office Communicator 2007 - Cannot Sync Address Book

Asked by rvctech in Live/Office Communications Server, Outlook Groupware Software

Tags: Microsoft Office Communicator, Windows Vista, Exchange Addres Book

Hello,
I am running Office Communication Server Standard 2007 on a Windows 2003 Standard Server. I have installed the Office Communication Client on my XP workstations and all works perfect. (We are running Outlook 2007 SP2 for desktop mail). When i try to duplicate this exact same setup on a Windows Vista Buisness Desktop (or laptop), Communicator loads and installs fine, and connects fine using the same TLS method with no certificate issues. It also prompts for the exchange login just as the XP boxes do, but for some reason where the XP install works perfectly, and gives me the group+members from AD that i added, the Vista install fails with the error "Distribution Group service could not perform this action." Anyone seen this before? I dont believe its the OCS server since all the XP clients work perfectly. I have checked the Firewall settings in Vista and its in the exception list with full scope. Im stumped. Lots of this issue floating around, but no one seems to have it confined to Vista like i do. Am i missing something? I have duplicated this on 5 Vista machines all with the same result.
