in the communicator when a user loggs in. all users are LCS enabled, i
just want NOT to have to add them manualy... is there a way ?

There is an import script that can be utilized to import a list of contacts
for a user, or group of users.

Download the LCS 2005 SP1 Resource kit:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A368DED8-EA7C-4C65-9844-39CAFA07A454&displaylang=en

In the C:\Program Files\Microsoft LC 2005\ResKit\WMI Samples\ directory are
two files: LCSAddContacts_readme.htm and LCSAddContacts.wsf
Regarding this script, the readme is pretty good...and is great for a
script. In addition, you can look at the .wsf script as it is cleartext and
not encoded/encrupted.

This script utilizes two import text files. The downside is that this
script would have to be re-ran each time a user is added to your
environment. The upside is that you simply need to update the files.
Another upside is that the script should not duplicate contacts that it has
already added. You could also utilize it to put the contacts in a group and
simply update that group.

The WMI reference is located here:

this link clearly states that this is for LCS 2005 (NOT SP1). are those
tools already available in SP1, or can they be downloaded from anywhere
?

I know this is an old post, but I am having the same problem as Jasques. I am using LCS 2005 SP1. All my users are LCS enabled (right-clicked on OU within AD to enable).

Background knowledge...
Contacts.txt looks like...
msRTCSIP-PrimaryUserAddress

sip:user1@domain.local
sip:user2@domain.local
sip:user3@domain.local

ACESFile looks like...
all allow allow

General

I then run the following commands at the command line...
CScript LCSAddContacts.wsf /userfile:contacts.txt /contactsfile:contacts.txt

Then I run...
CScript LCSAddaces.wsf /userfile:contacts.txt /contactsfile:acesfile.txt

The command line displays the examples within the script, pauses for about 2 seconds, and then completes. However, when I have user1, user2, etc log into Communicator 2005 nothing changes...

Please help,

Keenan
