Hey James, Yeah it was re-implemented, but we stopped using it early last year when we upgraded AD. Employee photos have definitely been updated since then though.

Cheers, J. From: ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com [mailto:ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com] On Behalf Of Nigel Hertz Sent: Thursday, 3 March 2011 10:01 AM To: ozMOSS Subject: Profile database and photos (MOSS 2007) Hey all Got a strange question that's sort of bugging me. In the user profile database on MOSS 2007, there's the option to add user photos. Currently, all our employee photos are stored in a teamsite, and their 'mySite' points their photo URL to that teamsite. This URL is also stored in Active Directory (under the 'websites' | 'other' property) What generally happens is reception updates these URL's in the profile database on SharePoint. My understanding is that up until a week ago, the profile database updated AD with these URL's, but since last week Wednesday, this has stopped happening, with the result being that AD now overwrites the picture URL field in SharePoint (i.e. If the URL has been changed in SharePoint, AD overwrites it, with the result being that ). Is this 'writeback' to AD even possible out the box? (I never thought it was, but the evidence seems to point otherwise) Nothing has changed in the UPD to my knowledge, and the property field mappings have been unchanged for a few months.
