IBM Lotus Sametime 7.5 Release Notes Known limitations, problems, and workarounds

Running in a hybrid environment with pre -7.5 clients

The Sametime Connect 7.5 client can run in an environment with a mixture of new and old Sametime

clients. Note that you will not be able to send rich text to pre-7.5 clients, and that the rich text tools will be

disabled in such a client. Also note that when switching to "In a Meeting" status, you will be seen by older

clients as "Online" with no status icon.

Some network connectivity options not available on Linux Connect

The Linux Connect client does not support the following connectivity options, and they will not work even

though they are available:

HTTP proxy with authentication

HTTPS proxy

Reverse proxy

Contact issues

Voice Chat only works with primary community

You can only create voice chat sessions with other users in your primary community. Although the voice

chat menu will be available for users from other communities, if you defined such additional communities,

the feature is limited in this release to work only with your primary community.

"$" character in business card retrieving data from Domino LDAP

Domino LDAP adds the "$" sign to the

postalAddress

attribute. Therefore, when users' details are

being retrieved from Domino LDAP, the value for Location contains "$" signs. Since the value of this field

is a concatenation of 3 other fields in the Name and Address Book (City, State/Province, and Country), a

possible workaround is to fill only one of these fields.

Internationalization issues

Click To Call may not work correctly for Turkish locale

For a Turkish locale setting, Click To Call may not work as expected.
