Sametime Gateway
Pre-7.5 Sametime clients are not licensed for use Lotus Sametime client users must use the Sametime client version 7.5 or newer only when exchanging
instant messages and presence information with public instant messaging providers such as AOL Instant
MessengerTM, Yahoo Messenger®, and Google TalkTM. Pre-7.5 clients are not licensed to connect with
public instant messaging providers. It is the responsibility of the Sametime Gateway administrator to
comply with the Lotus Sametime Gateway license agreement and the Lotus Sametime Lotus Sametime
license agreement. To help you enforce the license agreement, you must explicitly assign local users
access to the external community, using the Integrated Solutions Console, in order for users to exchange
instant messages and presence with users of the external community.
As an administrator, you must first determine that the users to whom you give access to public instant
messaging providers have upgraded or installed the Sametime 7.5 or 7.5.1 client. You then grant access
only to those users only by selecting them from using the Assign Users option on the Community >
Assign Users page. Because the list of users will likely grow over time, IBM recommends that you create
an LDAP group of Sametime 7.5 client users in the enterprise LDAP directory for this purpose, and grant
access to the group instead. This group can have either individual users or other groups as members.
Members of this group can then be granted access to a specific public instant messaging provider.

URLs displayed twice When an AOL® user sends a URL in an instant message, the URL is displayed twice. The first instance
may not always be clickable or navigate to the correct site. Click on the second instance to navigate to
the correct URL.
Server issues Sametime
AIX - Domino fails to connect to LDAP server with SSL via DA .nsf This issue is related specifically to Domino 7 on AIX. The LDAP SSL works with the same steps on both
Windows and Solaris when the "Verify server name with remote server's certificate" option is enabled. It
only works with Domino 6.5.1 on AIX.
The workaround for the Domino server is to disable the "Verify server name with remote server's
certificate" option in the DA.nsf database.
Sametime
Conversion Service and files with wrong extensions When file types have been renamed using a different (incorrect) extension, the conversion service will
attempt to convert the file with the incorrect extension. This may result in the conversion service
producing a large number of incorrect converted images in the converted directory.
These images will eventually be cleaned up, but the process of creating the images may take a long
