The OCS 2007 PowerPack provides access to major OCS 2007 Global, User, and Server objects and settings. This includes Users, Edge and Federation, Servers and Global settings. Some objects add links and actions to view further information and to provision and help administer OCS.
This PowerPack was partially based on the OCS Powershell Scripts found in the companion CD of the “Office Communication 2007 Resource Kit” book (http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/10482.aspx).
