Lync server connecting to exchange server fail!

[sparker]

Hi

I set up Lync which is now finally working but the clients are refusing to connect to outlook and give the message that Lync failed to connect to the Exchange server.
I set it up with the domain school.local but so the users are added as user.local but of course their email address is user@sch0ol.domain.sch.uk. Do I need to add the school domain as a secondary sipdomain in the topology builder or am I addingthe clients incorrectly. I must be really stupid as noone else seems to have had so much trouble with Lync!

What version of outlook are you running at the moment?
