My best tip...  Remain professional, which means try not to let them see you sweat.  If you don't know, ask the appropriate folks and tell the originator of the request that you'll handle it (as appropriate).

Next tip...Keep a list of those folks that you are told to call, so that you can start putting together your own personal list of contacts.  And if you talk to the same person more than once, definitely try to get to know them (be more sociable).  That will make them more likely to willingly help you in any situations, including emergencies, that you may find yourself needing their assistance.  I made friends with one of the new IT folks, who has since been promoted to Manager of IT, and I know that anytime I really need something from IT all I have to do is call him.  Today that came in handy and made me look great to bossie.  Those are nice contacts to have at your fingertips.
