IBM Lotus Sametime 7.5.1 Release Notes
Sametime
Internet e-mail addresses not supported in LDAP attribute
If a Sametime server is setup to use an LDAP directory, there is an optional setting in
stconfig.nsf
that specifies the LDAP attribute to use for the internal Sametime ID of a user. This setting cannot contain
an LDAP attribute that holds the internet e-mail address for users. If it does, then web conferences that
are restricted to certain users will not work properly, and other user-restriction related features may be
broken in Sametime.
Sametime
No test or self-signed certificates for HTTPS proxy connections
The Sametime client supports using HTTPS proxy connections (forward or reverse). However, when
using HTTPS connections, the HTTPS server must be using certificates from a Root Certificate Authority.
The Sametime client will refuse connections to HTTPS servers that use a test or self-signed certificate.
Only valid certificates, from certificate authorities which can actually be authenticated, can be used.
Sametime
Users appear offline logging into discrete nodes of a cluster
Users in the buddy list are associated with a community; a community is unique, according to a hostname
and user ID. Therefore, when logging into discrete hosts that represent a single, logical Sametime server,
a new community is created for each one. Users associated with a particular community will only show
awareness when logged into that community's host. This may be avoided by simply changing the host
value of the community in the login dialog or community configuration page to the desired target host.
Known problems and workarounds
Installation issues
Sametime
Sametime setup fails when xACL enabled for Domino Directory
Currently, Sametime cannot be installed successfully when the Domino Directory (names.nsf) is
configured to use an extended ACL (xACL). In order to install Sametime successfully, a customer must
first disable xACL support for the Domino Directory. After installing Sametime, the customer may then
re-enable the xACL. Extended ACL support can be configured by opening names.nsf in a Notes client,
navigating to File -> Database -> Access Control, and then clicking on the Advanced tab.
Sametime Gateway
Tab order problems in installation program
When running the installation program, several panels do not exhibit tabbing behavior correctly and may
skip certain buttons on the panel. To get to all the buttons, use Shift+Tab instead.
