Configure Users

Topic Last Modified: 2009-04-28

Procedures to configure global Web conferencing settings are included in Configure Audio/Video Conferencing and Web Conferencing. All other user configuration settings are described in this section. Ensure that the global settings for desired features are such that they can be configured for individual users.

Note

For details about using WMI scripting to configure users, see the Using WMI to Configure New Users topic in the Administering Office Communications Server 2007 R2 section of the Operations documentation.

Important

If you did not configure your global properties on the Meetings tab to enforce per user, some of the options are not available because they are enforced by the global settings you configured.

To configure users for Office Communications Server

  1. Log on to a server with the Office Communications Server 2007 R2 administrative tools as a member of the RTCUniversalUserAdmins group or with equivalent user rights.

  2. Click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Office Communications Server 2007 R2.

  3. Expand the Forest node, expand the Enterprise pool node or Standard Edition Servers node, expand the pool or server name, and then click Users.

  4. Do one of the following:

    • To configure all users for the server, right-click Users, and then click Configure users.
    • To configure an individual user, in the console pane, expand Users. In the details pane, right-click the user account that you want to configure, and then click Configure users.

  5. On the Welcome to the Configure Users Wizard page, click Next.
