Office Communicator clients cannot communicate with contacts homed on AOL

 

Summary:

If your organization leverages Public Internet Connectivity (aka: "PIC") in conjunction with their Live Communication Server 2005 and/or Office Communications Server 2007 servers, you may not be able to successfully communicate with (or see the presence status of) America Online Instant Messenger users.

Explanation:

America Online changed their root certificates on their SIP Access Gateway at approximately 12/2/2008, 4:00 AM EST.

Resolution:

The America Online Root CA 1 certificate, which can be obtained from https://pki-info.aol.com/AOL/, needs to be in the trust list of all Live Communication Server 2005 and/or Office Communications Server 2007 servers (that connect to sip.oscar.aol.com) by 12/2/2008, 4:00 AM EST.

More Information:

Microsoft Customer Support Services has created a Windows Media Video to walk our customers through the process of adding this certificate.

    Scott Oseychik over on the MSDN blogs has a good post today about federation issues between OCS 2005/2007 and AOL. Apparently, American Online changed their root certificates on their SIP Access Gateway at approximately 12/2/2008, 4:00 AM EST.Via Scott's

    It would have been nice for AOL to have communicate d this to MSFT and in turn communicate it to its customer base.  A simple email would have caused us a lot less aggrevation

    I haven't run into this one personally but I noticed it linked off of LCSKid's site, pointing to an escalation engineer blog entry here. Long story short, AOL changed their certificate signer, and you'll need to grab/import the updated authority from

    Unfortunately, no. What you can do, however, is on the properties of the Edge server, select the "IM Provider" tab, click AOL, click Edit, and select "Allow communications only from users on recipient's contact list." Hope this helps, Scott Osecyhik

    Looks like this is still the case with Lync.  Unfortunately, not only do you need to install the two certs but also change the cipher. Can't Microsoft make these changes as part of the Lync installation procedure?  Seems kind of silly that you need to remember those two things just to talk to AOL.
