FQDN of lync server is lync.mohsen.com and I want enable "asadi" into my lync server("asadi" is exist in ldap and exchange")
this is my code
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Management.Automation;
using System.Management.Automation.Remoting;
using System.Management.Automation.Runspaces;
using System.Security;
namespace ConsoleApplication2
class Program
static SecureString GetSecurePassword(string password)
var securePassword = new SecureString();
foreach (var c in password)
securePassword.AppendChar(c);
return securePassword;
static void Main(string[] args)
string lyncUser = "administrator";
string _pass = "abc@123";
var lyncPW = GetSecurePassword(_pass);
var fqdnlync = "lync.mohsen.com";
var user = "asadi";
var sipadd = "[email protected]";
// lync server 2013
//this code is same as EXchange code in schima
PSCredential creds = new PSCredential(lyncUser, lyncPW);
WSManConnectionInfo conn = new WSManConnectionInfo(new Uri("https://lync.mohsen.com/ocspowershell"), "http://schemas.microsoft.com/powershell/Microsoft.PowerShell", creds);
conn.AuthenticationMechanism = AuthenticationMechanism.Default;
Runspace runspace_2 = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace(conn);
PowerShell powershell_2 = PowerShell.Create();
PSCommand command_2 = new PSCommand();
command_2.AddCommand("Enable-CsUser");
command_2.AddParameter("Identity", user);
command_2.AddParameter("RegistrarPool", fqdnlync);
command_2.AddParameter("SipAddressType", sipadd);
powershell_2.Commands = command_2;
try
runspace_2.Open();
powershell_2.Runspace = runspace_2;
powershell_2.Invoke();
catch (Exception ex)
Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString()); console.readkey();
finally
runspace_2.Dispose();
runspace_2 = null;
powershell_2.Dispose();
powershell_2 = null;
but this code dont work!
Where did I go wrong?
need to config any thing in lync server?

Answer 1

Does your Administrator account (which you've used to create the remote session) belong to the RTCUniversalUserAdmins RBAC group in AD?  This will be needed at minimum to be able to run Enable-CsUser through a remote powershell.
There is also a Lync development forum, which may be more useful for your question: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/lync/en-US/home?category=lync
