An Office Communications Server 2007 Quiz
For a little fun today, I decided to put together a little test for those who think they know Office Communications Server. Think of this as a fun little exercise that will help you learn OCS and help me learn what topics to blog about in the future. If one question boggles you, let me know and I will expand on it in a future blog. Be honest to yourself and don’t look at the answers! Note that if you don’t know the answers, some of them were covered in past blogs (but not all of them).
