    Please implement a preference to disable or hide sametime functions

    • Why not install Sametime?

      By Sean Harris 2 decades ago

      Not to detract from your request, but if you are running 6.5 that is on maintenace you are entitled to the Sametime IM and awareness for free. There is no cost for the Domino and Sametime Server licenses. You only pay for Sametime seats if you use the Connect Client and/or web conferencing. Using it within the context of Notes and DWA is free.

      • no license with n6.5

        Hello,



        I ask about it on the expert-exchange site and it seems like there is no such a thing.

        I have no record of it in my passport advantage and i found no info on the lotus site…

        If you have the proof of it, please, be kind to post me a response ;-)

          "IBM Lotus has announced that, with the release of Lotus Notes and Domino 6.5.1, customers active on software maintenance will be entitled to use fully-integrated Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing's (Sametime's) instant messaging (IM) and presence awareness functionality within the Notes and Domino environment at no additional charge."

        • Bruce, I wish these documents were editable!

          I can't even edit it with my Notes Client . . . arrrggh

          I forgot to put a subject line in my previous post, and just wanted to update it.

        • You're guy on Experts Exchange is wrong . . .

          Frederic,



          I went and looked at the post you mentioned on EE, and perhaps they just do not realize yet that this is a free upgrade if your maintenance is current. What you get with the free upgrade, is the Sametime Server and online awareness and IM within the Notes (including any Notes Apps) and iNotes Clients. Now what you do not get with this free upgrade is the use of the Sametime Connect client, or the Web Conferencing Server. For these two components you must purchase a client license.



          Please take a look at Ed Brill's BLOG for more information http://www.lotus.com/rw/eblog.nsf



          Hope this helps.



          Regards
