Recently we got some support request tickets regarding MAC clients which weren’t able to sign-in into Lync because they were missing the necessary root CA certificates. Those root CA certificates are required in order to sign-in into Lync rather it’s on the internal or external network. The following guide was written by a colleague of mine, and it explain how to install a root CA certificate on a MAC client:. Open the Keychain Access application, you can find it in the Launchpad or find it with Spotlight. Locate the certificate file (.CER) you have received from your system administrator and double click it.
The following message will popup, change the Keychain to “System” and click ‘Add’. You will be asked to put in your password to approve the Keychain modification, The Keychain Access Insert your password and click “Modify Keychain”. The following popup will appear. Expand Trust by clicking the small arrow next to it and verify Always Trust is marked. Then click “Always Trust” on the popup window. You will be asked to insert your password again, insert it and click “Update Settings”.
Now, in the Keychain Access application, navigate to System under Key chains and select Certificates under Category on the left pane. Verify that the new certificate appears and marked with a small blue point with a white plus sign in it.
Hi RCC will work with Lync 2013 servers. When you move to Skype for Business RCC is deprecated and no longer supported.
In its place is call via work. However, RCC is still available in SfB but as its deprecated its not a recommended suggestion. Ultimately, if you need Microsoft to support RCC, then stick with Lync 2013 until end of support and use the time to plan your move to SfB native.
If you go to SfB and use RCC, then Microsoft wont entertain a support call with you.
