Does anyone know what the LCS requirements are for Mac Messenger 5?

Is SP1 required to use corporate messaging? I know it is required for
Public IM connectivity, but I am only curious about being able to
connect to my corporate IM.

The reason I ask, when I try to log into my corporate IM I get the
following error:

Sign in to Microsoft Messenger failed because the service is
temporarily unavailable.

Now - I know the service is available - I can sign on from a PC without
a problem.

Any info would be appreciated!

Thanks

To answer my own question: (from
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/resources/resources.aspx?pid=resourcekits&rk=netadmin)

The following are dependencies and prerequisites for deploying
Messenger for Mac in your enterprise:

Live Communications Server 2005 with SP1 and a dependency on Active
Directory (includes the Address Book Service)
Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Standard or Enterprise Edition, and as
related dependencies:
Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1
Internet Information Server 6.0
Microsoft Messenger for Mac 5.0
