[cisco-voip] Sharing Personal Address Book

[Wes Sisk]

HI Ahmed,

Good catch. No, it looks like users still have to authenticate. However, 
the only 'valid' authentication is the user currently logged into the 
phone.  From the defect:
"Personal Address Book only allows users who are logged in to EM, to use 
only their ID and PIN to access Personal Address Book."
