Lync Client 2010 Autoconfiguration

Hi,

the Lync auto. configuration does not work. And I did register all the DNS- and SRV Records. In this case Lync Client is used internally not externally.

So I did change the config. and put the Internal Servername manually and was able to sign in.

Where?

1. In the upper-right area of Lync 2010, click the Gear icon to open the Options page.
2. In the Lync - Options dialog box, click Personal.
3. Next to the sign-in address, click Advanced.

If I use the FQDN of the Lync Front End Server it works. But not if I use for example a CNAME like this:

lync.domain.local ---> lyncserver01.domain.local

Also it does not work if I put the IP Address of the Lync Front End Server as internal URL. That explains why the auto. configuration does not work!

I did follow this KB-Article and Lync Client still only works if I use the Server FQDN as internal Servername

Any Idea why Lync Client is fixed with the Server FQDN?
