the Edge Server Against DoS and Password Brute Force Attacks in Office Communications Server<p>Some of my good OCS friends (Kjeld and Kenneth) pointed me to this great article from RUI Maximo on protecting your Edge/OCS from DoS.</p> <p>In some company’s users will actually be looked out after 3-5 bad  login attempts, and stay looked out until they are unlocked, in most company's they will reopen automatically after 5-15 min and then they will have 3-5 login attempts again.</p> <p>But no matter if it’s 5 min or 30 min that users are looked out, it’s could give load on the helpdesk, and loss of productivity .</p> <p>DoS attacks can be done from self made applications/scripts . I have not heard of customers that have had attack yet, but if you have customers that have concerns on this topic, please read Rui Maximo great article and maybe use the filter on your Edge server.</p> <p>Link : <a title="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/ff706687.aspx" href="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/ff706687.aspx">http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/ff706687.aspx</a></p> Jan Petersenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14316950675001849856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421175398645006715.post-74195738352384407882010-07-14T15:16:00.001+02:002010-07-14T15:24:47.392+02:00Important update: Microsoft Office Communicator Mobile 2007 R2<p>This is actully not just a fix/patch, it’s an update, I have missed the “call via work” from the normal dialpad for a long time, now this works on Windows 6.5, sorry dont know for all other mobiles. </p> <p>Download <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=93062936-f216-4d97-aa13-105a20454322">here</a> and description <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969816/da">here:</a> and remember that you always can download directly from the phone here <a href="http://getcomo.com">http://getcomo.com</a></p> <p>New version is:6906.29</p> <h5>Issues that this hotfix package fixes</h5> <ul> <li>Provides home screen support for new home screens in Windows Mobile 6.5+ phones. </li> <li><font color="#ff0000"><strong>Provides integration within the phone dialer for Windows Mobile 6.5+ phones. </strong></font></li> <li>Enables Communicator Mobile 2007 R2 to recognize when the phone is roaming and by default prevents Communicator Mobile 2007 R2 from signing in to roaming networks. </li> <li><font color="#ff0000"><strong>Provides additional support for joining conference calls from a Windows Mobile appointment. To do this, press Menu, and then press Join Conference. </strong></font></li> <li>Lets users log on by using a user name in the user@example.com format, in addition to the domain\user format. </li> <li><strong><font color="#ff0000">Enables the functionality by which callbacks are now automatically accepted when the user uses the Call via Work option.</font></strong> </li> <li>Resolves the problem in which the Microsoft Installer (.msi) installation fails on a Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3)-based computer. In this situation, users should install Communicator Mobile 2007 R2 by using a (.cab) installation. </li> <li>Fixes the problem in which AT&T FUZE devices that are set for a High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) connection cannot handle voice and data at the same time. In this situation, calls that use the <b>Call via Work</b> option fail unless the device is reverted to 3rd Generation (3G) by disabling HSDPA. </li> </ul> Jan

Finally, the integrations to the popular third party gateways like Corebridge, Estos and Genesys are still available, allowing companies to deploy Click-to-call solutions without needing to spend potentially significant amounts of money upgrading their IP-PBX.</p> <p>**************************</p> <p>I would go for that, if I for some reason that I can’t think of <img style="border-bottom-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-left-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-smile" alt="Smile" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8l0rb6OFvcVgNPqLL_gxaWooWleBgR1RZ5MvOWndiFhbiC4T6_zYDTqNrOcFDWQUJlApDjP4us9KjH9eKuKpEYswLYa9KdiaxRRY1lNnjXoERO-cQ0QCp_WOtsTrG_Vk65x3BJpe4r8jI/?imgmax=800" />, and not would go for OCS enterprise Voice, </p> <p>From my point of view, this is way better than CUCIMOC (softphone on softphone), and when I look at the new CS 14 client, and if there will be a CUCIMOC for that, it could be a very clumsy user experience! </p> <p>Good link to <a href="http://blogs.technet.com/b/uc/archive/2009/12/03/cisco_3a00_-just-like-any-other-office-communications-server-isv_3f00_.aspx">BJ Haberkorn blog</a> on CUCIMOC</p> Jan Petersenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14316950675001849856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421175398645006715.post-8955554744267136162010-06-09T10:43:00.001+02:002010-06-09T10:43:06.100+02:00Office Communications Online Standard Service Description<h6>Overview</h6> <p><a name="Description"></a>Microsoft® Office Communications Online is a hosted, enterprise-class communications solution based on Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2.

On its site, GIPS touts Yahoo, IBM Lotus, AOL, WebEx and Baidu as customers. All of those companies compete with Google products. For instance, Yahoo uses GIPS VideoEngine PC product to deliver real-time voice over Yahoo Messenger. Is that really going to last when Google owns GIPS? It’s the same story for AOL Instant Messenger. Simply put, Google will own the technology powering video and voice on the biggest IM clients. On the Google Apps front, WebEx uses GIPS VoiceEngine and so does Lotus Sametime. On the China front, Baidu also uses GIPS technology.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong><font color="#ff0000">If I was Cisco, IBM, Yahoo, AOL, maybe this is the time to find or maybe develop a new codec! ;)</font>   <br /></strong></p> <p>GIPS CEO Emerick Woods said:</p> <blockquote> <p>Google has been a valued customer of GIPS for many years and has greatly contributed to the development and innovation of our products to date. We have always respected their position in the industry and share the common vision of accelerating next generation innovation in the web-based solutions for real time communications.</p> <p>You may have many questions regarding this announcement but for now, until the successful completion of the offer, it will be business as usual for us here at GIPS. You will continue to interact with the same team members and can expect the same level of support and commitment that you have received in the past. Google has informed us that nothing will change for current and prospective customers of GIPS. Following the completion of the Offer, Google intends to continue servicing GIPS’s customers in accordance with existing contracts while offering them the opportunity to transition to new offerings developed by Google. Although we will not have more significant details until the process is complete and full integration efforts are underway, we will keep you informed throughout as events arise.</p> </blockquote> <p><strong><font color="#ff0000">In other words, Google will continue servicing GIPS existing contracts, but after that rivals may be on their own.</font></strong></p> <p> source for this information:

this meeting I could have done from OCS Live-meeting, instead of being in this airport for X number of days. <br />Some of them doesn’t have OCS but some might have.</p> <p>But my guess is more than >50% if they had the possibility!</p> <p>On the other hand, I know of two guys from Inceptio in Ireland, finish doing a 4 days OCS Voice Ignite training, they couldn't do this in a Live meeting, and who wouldn't like to have a few stress less days to relax, finding the local PUB or go for a tour in what ever country you are cord in :)</p> <p>But all the guys that are paying for a TAXI spending many hours to drive across Europe, they are regretting not using OCS :) </p> Jan Petersenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14316950675001849856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421175398645006715.post-28957841343754716712010-04-16T02:59:00.001+02:002010-04-16T02:59:33.232+02:00OCS R2 April updates<p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tbody> <tr> <td valign="top" width="420"> <p>Product</p> </td> <td valign="top" width="165"> <p>Update</p> </td> <td valign="top" width="128"> <p>KB Link</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="420"> <p><b>Office Communications Server 2007 R2 </b></p> </td> <td valign="top" width="165"> <p>OCS_2007R2_CU5</p> </td> <td valign="top" width="128"> <p><a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968802">968802</a></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="420"> <p><b>Office Communication Server 2007 R2 Database Upgrade</b></p> </td> <td valign="top" width="165"> <p>OCSDU_2007R2_CU5</p> </td> <td valign="top" width="128"> <p><a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/979857">979857</a></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="420"> <p><b>Attendant Console 2007 R2 </b></p> </td> <td valign="top" width="165"> <p>AC_2007R2_CU5</p> </td> <td valign="top" width="128"> <p><a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/980936">980936</a></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="420"> <p><b>Office Communicator 2007 R2 </b></p> </td> <td valign="top" width="165"> <p>OC_2007R2_CU5</p> </td> <td valign="top" width="128"> <p><a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978564">978564</a></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="420"> <p><b>Office Communicator Phone Edition 2007 R2</b></p> </td> <td valign="top" width="165"> <p>OCPE_2007R2_CU5</p> </td> <td valign="top" width="128"> <p><a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/981526">981526</a></p> </td> </tr> </tbody></table></p> Jan Petersenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14316950675001849856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421175398645006715.post-62034873851767071752010-04-07T11:00:00.001+02:002010-04-07T11:00:49.402+02:00Polycom Handset for OCS 14<p>Polycom will build OCS 14  devices</p> <p>Lobby phone Cx500 and lowcost CX600 full OCS14 device , CX3000 full ocs 14 Conference device,</p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyp4yCaBXA7p3AFiLtERDAl_-QpPBLmKls8_gC0noNzowLLxYUeib80zE20cdQQX9Zu_c_8drD1Nu0KmcBOqinz2U4vmuGqbU-C4wE1BmNBWWxQ0OSgSeLVe5VKcM1Lvr7RWHNWdmm8Re3/s1600-h/image%5B12%5D.png"><img style="border-bottom: 0px;
