Lync server 2013 simple central forest user without Linked mailboxes

Hi All,
How to setup Multiple forest in a central forest topology and we don't have Exchange server in our infra.
Thank you if you can help me.

Understood.  You don't need Exchange.  You really just need a forest trust and the msRTCSIP-Originatorsid AD attribute populated. 
Check out Saleesh's write-ups below.  In the walkthrough, he manually populates them, and this is fine as a test but you'd want to script it out or use an identity management tool if you have many users.

  • Clean up Active Directory after dirty deleted lync server 2013

    Hi All,
    i have trouble with my lync server, im gonna re-deploy my lync server 2013 after it has deleted without no purpose.
    based on my experience if we want to deploy with the same name and configuration like previously. setup with failed because it has already register in adsiedit ?
    please tell me how to clean up my AD.
    thanks for you assistance guys,
    Best Regards,
    ari

    Hi,
    On DC, please run adsiedit and connect to the Configuration naming context. 
    Browse down to Configuration > Services > RTC Service and then just delete the entire
    RTC Service container.  Also delete the Computer object(s) for any Lync Server you had previously installed. Then you can install the new Lync Server 2013 with no issue.
    Here is a similar case may help you:

  • What are the supported feature for LYNC Server 2013 WITHOUT Telephony

    Hi
    I have a new customer who is asking for LYNC Server 2013 without to use VoIP Support.
    The would like to use the LYNC-SKYPE connectivity but without LYNC calls.
    Most of their internal users are using SKYPE.
    The Question is now, what Features are possible for example:
    FEATURE-LIST
    See other’s presence
    Manage own presence
    See presence in Office
    Contact management
    Contact card
    PC-PC and multiparty IM
    PC-PC and multiparty file transfer
    Persistent Chat
    PC-to-PC computer audio calling
    PC-to-PC computer video calling
    PC-to-PC presence display, IM, audio, and video with Skype users
    But what of the above feature list is possible without using VoIP ??
    And how works that LYNC WebApp Client without VoIP? Is it possible to route Audio/Video over the internet by using that LYNC WebApp Client in LYNC 2013??
    Thanks in advance ;-)
    Kind regards
    Michael
    Kind regards Michael Damaschke

    All of that is possible without PSTN connectivity or the plus cal.
    When you say VoIP, do you mean audio chatting over TCP/IP in the purest form, or do you mean specifically telephone calls?
    Technially PC-to-PC computer audio calling is VoIP, or voice over IP, but if you're talking about connecting it to a PBX or the phone network, you don't need it for any of the above.  It works wonderfully and is quite a bit cheaper without it due to
    fact that you won't need to license the plus cal for enterprise voice or the Exchange enterprise cal for voicemail.

  • Microsoft Lync Server 2013, Backup Service user store backup module detected items having pool ownership conflict during import.

    Dear Team,
    I have two Enterprise lync 2013 pools, abcPool and abcpool1. abcPool1 has got two servers, Server1 and server2. and abcpool has one FE server named "Server 3". and they have pool pairing.
    Replication was fine between them when i had only one FE server in each pool, one day FE service broke on one of the FE server on abcpool1 and failed to start so i had to do failover to another pool, at that time i introduced one more FE in abcPool1, that
    why now 2 FEs in abcPool2. Server1 FE service was resolved by reinstalling the binaries. However after that im unable to get the backupservice state to normal, i tried the below articles with no luck,

  • Lync Server 2013 : Export-CsArchivingData Can i get the files or name of files transferred between 2 users

    I am using LyncServer 2013 And my Question is :-
    Export-CsArchivingData -
    By using this Command-let Can i get  the files or name of files transferred between 2 users 
    Whether it is stored in "LcsLog" database ?
    If not weather Lync server saves the files (which users are sending to another users ) anywhere on file system, or not ?

    Doug Deitterick has a great blog posting that should answer your question: http://blogs.technet.com/b/dodeitte/archive/2013/04/24/archiving-options-in-lync-server-2013.aspx
    The actual File is not archived in Lync, but the file name is and will be have either _p2P or _conf at the end of the name to indicate how it was transferred.

  • Telephone numbers (officePhone and homePhone) are missing in a contact card in a Lync Server 2013-based Lync mobile client

    In my opinion, the error has not completely fixed in KB2967628. After I install the latest November 2014 cumulative
    update. I see the following behavior. User A searches for user B. User B never sign in to the Link. There are three fields in the active directory for User B: officePhone, mobilePhone and homePhone (these fields contain different numbers). When searching on
    the mobile client (Android/IOS) for user B – as result user A see only mobile number. If User B At least once will go to Link (sign in) when his search will work, (find officePhone). If User B will change, the privacy settings for user A is in the search will
    be displayed homePhone field.
    On the Desktop client,
    I can find all the fields without those actions performed in the example. If I make a request
    to the service UCWA manually like this (below
    the text) before
    actions, which I performed in example, I did not receive officePhone and homePhone – only mobilePhone field.
    GET "https://lync.domainname:443/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/XXXX/people/search?query=$usename$&amp;limit=200" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Authorization: $USENAMETOKEN$" 

    Hi,
    Based on your description, I’m sorry I’m a little confused about the following you mentioned. I understand the issue is we can only see the mobile number in the contact card on Lync mobile client and that we can search for users based on their office number,
    we can see the home phone field in the contact card but there isn’t number showing. I anything I have misunderstood, please feel free to let us know.
    “When searching on the mobile client (Android/IOS) for user B – as result user A see only mobile number. If User B At least once will go to Link (sign in) when his search will work, (find officePhone). If User B will
    change, the privacy settings for user A is in the search will be displayed homePhone field.”

  • Microsoft Lync Server 2013 Control Panel "Navigation to the webpage was canceled"

    i'm facing this issue on the last 2 days.My Lync server 2013 was seted up a month ago and everything went fine on the installation.
    Lync server 2013 on Windows 2008R2 SP1.
    I could login to the Control Panel (using domain administrator credentials), create users (including myself) manage clients etc.
    i didn't login to Lync server for at least a week, beacause i didin't have any other user to add. When time came to add a new user to Lync, i got this error whenever i try to open Control Panel.
    i didn't change anything during this time, so i'm really confused by this.
    i've checked everything from the start and all seem to be in place.
    i also can't open the admin page from the local host as i get an error
    HTTP error 403.4 - Fobidden.
    i tried also to create new certificates for Lync server, but issue remains.
    Also, any solutions i've read for this problem doesn't work as everything is placed correct as other users suggest.
    Can anyone please help me further?
    Cheers,
    Elias

    Ok I had the same problem, I missconfigured the admin simple url in topology builder (TB) which I fixed.  Also the default certificate in the FE server did not have a SAN entry for the "admin" simple url (which was an error). 
    So I corrected the admin address in TB republised it, redid step two on the FE, reissued adn replaced the old cert.  The new cert had the corrected admin simple url.  Checked IIS on the server and made sure that the internal web server had the
    right certificate, restarted IIS.
    The default Lync control pannel still did not come up, I rebooted the server, the closest I got was being prompt for my credential which it did not accept.
    Finally control pannel came up with https://localhost/cscp but I got prompted becuase of a certificate missmatch:
    but it still worked!!! Very very wierd.  I have not changed CA servers.  I am interested about why this happened....

  • Monitoring and Testing Lync Server 2013 Performance

    Good day , 
    I have two questions :
    1 - Even though it is not recommended . How can I use Stress and Performance tool to test my production Lync Servers 
    using current users accounts and profiles without making any changes to AD or Lync topology?
    2 - What are the most important Lync server counters to be monitored and is it enough to use Windows Performance monitoring tool for that purpose ? 
    Thanks in advance,
    Best Regards Bisher Shbib

    Hi,
    For your first question, there are no stress tools currently available specific for Lync 2013 now. Here is a similar case may help you:

    For your second question, if you want to monitor Lync server 2013 and Lync client 2013 you need deploy Lync Monitoring server. You can refer to the link below:

  • What port number for Desktop Sharing using in Lync Server 2013 and Lync Online

    Dear All,
          My environment using Lync Server 2013 and Lync online on Office 365. I don't want my user using Desktop Sharing feature. then I need to know what port number for Desktop Sharing using in Lync Server 2013 and Lync Online.
    I will deny this port on personal firewall each client.
          Thank you for your advise.

    Hi,
    I'm not sure you'd be able to do this with ports without impacting other application sharing features such as Q&A, Whiteboard, Poll etc - I'm pretty sure they all come under the same umbrella of ClientAppSharing.
    Ordinarily you would create or modify your conferencing policy to restrict sharing to single programs only using a cmdlet similar to below;
    Set-CsConferencingPolicy -Identity "Global" -EnableAppDesktopSharing SingleApplication
    This would disable desktop sharing but enable users to continue sharing other single programs. If you want to remove that functionality too, then replace the 'SingleApplication' parameter with 'None'. Then users won't be able to share any programs either.
    This is the correct way to do it as the icons will be greyed out for the users. Doing it your way, they would still be able to click them, and it would throw an error - this will lead to a lot more support calls and people assuming a service is broken.
    I hope that helps some.
    Kind regards
    Ben

    Enable the Active Directory forest to host Lync Server 2013 deployments.
    Prepare Forest Active Directory settings execution failed on an unrecoverable error.

    I found one other thread
    here, but it didn't give a resolution. Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    This issue may cause of Invalid access control entries (ACEs) for CN=RTC Service
    Try to do the following path to solve the issue:
    Click Start, click Run, type ldp, and then click OK.
    In the LDP console, click the Connection menu, click Connect, type domain controller name, and then click OK.
    On the Connection menu, click Bind, type the credentials of the domain administrator, and then click OK.
    On the View menu, click Tree.
    In the tree view interface, for BaseDN drop-down list, select the appropriate domain context, such as " CN=Configuration,DC=office,DC=contoso,DC=com," and then click OK.
    Under CN=Configuration,DC=<domainname>,DC=com, locate to the object CN=Services, CN=Configuration,DC=office,DC=contoso,DC=com"
    Under CN=Services, CN=Configuration,DC=office,DC=contoso,DC=com", locate to the object "CN=RTC Service,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=office,DC=contoso,DC=com".
    Right-click the object in step 7, click Advanced, select Security Descriptor, make sure that the SACL option and the "Text dump" option are unchecked and then click OK.
    This will open a new window with security descriptor details
    In the middle pane of the Security descriptor Window, select and delete all the access control entries (ACEs) that have “\0ADEL:” at the end in the Trustee column. Multiple ACEs can be selected and then click Delete ACE to delete them.
    Close the security descriptor as soon as you delete the corresponding ACE's
    Close the LDP console.
    Then prepare Forest again.

  • Configuring Lync Server 2013 to be a partner Application for Exchange 2013

    Hello Guys,
    I just want to share my experience while configuring Lync server 2013 to be a partner Application for exchange 2013 sever. 
    As mentioned on technet you need to run Configure-EnterprisePartnerApplication.ps1 script that ships with Exchange 2013. 
    But when I tried to run the script as described on the technet article, I found it always fails with " the accepted domain is not valid"
    I have checked my accepted domains many times and i found that there's no issues with my configured accepted domain. 
    So I started to review the script to find the issue and I found that the script was configured  as below 
    $acceptedDomains = Get-AcceptedDomain ;
      if ($acceptedDomains -eq $null)
        WriteError ("There is no accepted domain so user can not be created.")
      $acceptedDomain = $acceptedDomains[0].Name;
      if($UseDomainController -eq $true)
        $user = New-MailUser -Name $username -DomainController $DomainController -ExternalEmailAddress $username@$acceptedDomain;
    set-mailuser -Identity $user.Identity -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $true -DomainController $DomainController
      else
        $user = New-MailUser -Name $username -ExternalEmailAddress $username@$acceptedDomain;
    set-mailuser -Identity $user.Identity -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $true; 
    which is totally wrong as below: 
    firstly it makes $AcceptedDomain variable to equal the Name of the accepted domain. 
    Not all customers configure the name of the Accepted Domain to be the Domain Name.
    Secondly  it makes $AcceptedDomain variable to equal the name of the first Accepted Domain.
    The first domain may be not the default Accepted Domain. 
    So I have configured the script as below
    $acceptedDomains = Get-AcceptedDomain | ? {$_.Default -eq "True"}  ;
      if ($acceptedDomains -eq $null)
        WriteError ("There is no accepted domain so user can not be created.")
      $acceptedDomain = $acceptedDomains.DomainName;
      if($UseDomainController -eq $true)
        $user = New-MailUser -Name $username -DomainController $DomainController -ExternalEmailAddress $username@$acceptedDomain;
    set-mailuser -Identity $user.Identity -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $true -DomainController $DomainController
      else
        $user = New-MailUser -Name $username -ExternalEmailAddress $username@$acceptedDomain;
    set-mailuser -Identity $user.Identity -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $true; 
    I hope This help. 
    Thanks
