IBM Lotus Sametime 7.5.1Release Notes

Sametime Connect 7.5.x client and pre-Sametime Connect 7.5.x client

File transfer between the 7.5.x client and pre-7.5 clients will always go through the server. Pre-7.5 clients are not P2P capable. As such, when chatting from a 7.5.x client to a pre-7.5 client, if file transfer is not allowed in the user Policy, then the file transfer icon will be disabled for the pre-7.5 client user. This is the result of a "Capabilities" check.

Which transfer method is my client using ?

Debug sametime client logs are needed to determine this:

1.Open sametime.properties

2.Set '.level' to "FINE" (.level=FINE). NOTE: do not confuse ‘.level’ with ‘logger.level’.

3.Use your client for file transfer

4.Go to the Sametime user folder (this is not the install folder; the Sametime user folder can found within the user’s C:\Documents and Settings folder)

5.Locate file name sametime.log.0

Server (RTC) file transfer logging will look like this:

[com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.filetransfer.FileTransferServiceFactory. getService] ::FINE:: File Transfer enabled in Policy [com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.filetransfer.FileTransferServiceFactory. getService] ::FINE:: Virus scanning is available for this file transfer [com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.filetransfer.FileTransferServiceFactory. getService] ::FINE:: Virus Scanning is enabled.

.fileTransferStarted] ::FINE:: RTC File Transfer Started...

[com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.filetransfer.rtc.FileTransferServiceRtc

.fileTransferCompleted] ::INFO:: RTC File Transfer Completed

P2P file transfer logging will look like this:

[com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.filetransfer.FileTransferServiceFactory. getService] ::FINE:: File Transfer disabled in Policy. Using P2P. [com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.filetransfer.FileTransferServiceFactory. getService] ::FINE:: Virus scanning is not available [com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.filetransfer.p2p.FileSender

Sametime

Sametime does not provide a virus scanner

Sametime 7.5.x does not provide a virus scanner. However, Sametime 7.5.x can be configured to call a third-party virus scanning program before transferring a file.

Do not choose "Always" as the value for "Virus scan files before transferring" in Sametime Administration
