IBM Lotus Sametime 7.5.1 Release 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.

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
