UNIX/Linux platforms. When this occurs, removing the .oit directory located in the user's home directory (the Notes user) will correct the problem.

This is an issue in third-party software used in Sametime for document conversions. The matter is being investigated, and should be resolved in a future release.

Microsoft Office Integration : Re-enable Smart Tag

There are times when the Sametime options in the Microsoft Office Smart Tags suddenly stop appearing in the Person Name drop-down action list. These options include "(Lotus Sametime) - Open chat" and "(Lotus Sametime) - Open voice chat". The affected programs are MS Word, Excel, and Power Point.

This occurs when a Person Name Smart Tag is triggered from an MS Office application, but there is currently not a 7.5.1 Sametime Client running. The Smart Tag requires a running 7.5.1 client in order to launch chats, etc., and displays an error if a 7.5.1 client is not found to be running. MS Windows then disables the Smart Tag.

To re-enable the Smart Tag, close all MS Office applications, launch the 7.5.1 client, and then run the following registry file from anywhere:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Common\Smart Tag\Actions\{80E9E20D-D9D0-448E-BFCA-EF9BA799FCD4}] "OpusApp"=-

Then open the MS Office application, and the "Lotus Sametime" menu items should be restored. This will be fixed for the final product version.

Unable to log in to Sametime from SUSE Linux client

In Lotus Sametime 7.5.1 Beta 2, there is a known issue that requires a workaround to allow the Sametime Connect client to successfully log in to the Sametime server. The workaround is to add your machine host name and IP address to the machine hosts file. Following are the instructions:

zEdit the /etc/hosts file. This file contains a list of host entries in the form of:

IP-Address Fully-Qualified-Hostname Optional Short-Hostname

The first entry in the file is likely:

127.0.0.1localhost

zPut your actual IP address and hostname above this entry, for example:

9.33.34.35myMachine.acme.com

zSave the file and start Sametime
