KB974571 + OCS or LCS = BAD NEWS! DO NOT INSTALL!
WARNING!
I just got off the phone with Microsoft support. After installing my patches and rebooting, my OCS 2007 R2 server would not start the “Front End” service internally or the Access Edge service externally. The error IEs in event log were 12299 and 12290, and it was saying that an evaluation copy had expired.
It turns out, KB974571 is causing the problem. At this time, DO NOT INSTALL KB974571 on any servers running OCS or LCS, Microsoft support informed me that both products are impacted.
