Release Notes

should be comma-separated, and should contain client types in hexadecimal format, but without the leading "0x".

Example:

In sametime.ini: [Config]

VPS_PREFERRED_LOGIN_TYPES=1002,1304

Suppose that user A is logged in with two clients: 1304 (UIM blue) and 1002 (6.5 C++). User B connects to user A and starts a chat. According to the default list, the UIM client should pop-up the chat dialog, but because of the VPS_PREFERRED_LOGIN_TYPES list supplied in the sametime.ini, the C++ client will get the chat.

Please also see the related technote # 1253176.

Client Types:

1000 - C++ toolkit

1001 - Java toolkit

1002 - C++ client

1003 - Java client

100A - ST Links

1100 - Notes 8 Standard Client

1304 - UIM client

Conversion Services on Windows Sametime servers

Sametime Conversion Services is a feature that takes files of various formats (slides, images, documents, etc.) and provides a bitmap rendering, so they can be shared in a meeting as slides.

In Sametime 7.5, Sametime Conversion Services was installed by default as a Domino servlet. This required special configuration steps if the Sametime server was configured for SSL.

With Sametime 7.5.1, the option for running Sametime Conversion Services as a Domino servlet is no longer supported. By default, the conversion services run as an integrated function of the Sametime server. However, you still have the option to run conversion services on a separate Windows system in order to offload the workload associated with file conversion from the Sametime server.

For more information see "Configuring the Meeting Services" in the Sametime Server Administration section of the Sametime 7.5.1 Information Center.
