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.

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
