Hello,

 

 I am using Sametime on Win2K and Win2K3 terminal server. No Citrix, but it 
should not make much difference.

 

 There are differents SameTime versions.

 

Using the version 1.5, I was forced to lock-down (remove NTFS write permission) 
the connect.ini file.  Then, the users had to specify their logon information 
each time and restore their buddy list from a file.

 Another way to deal with this problem was to make a copy of vpstore.ocx (not 
sure for the name) into the user profile (mapped Z: drive in my case) and 
register it from there (In fact, merging the proper .reg into the user part for 
Classes registration)

 

 Still, you have to make sure that the "Chat transcript" folder under 
\p.f.\lotus\sametime\ is not writable by the users. 

 

 We switched to the version 3. The good thing with this version is that the 
buddy list get stored and retrieved from the server.

This makes the "vpstore" trick useless. But still, you have to lock-down the 
connect.ini file (just imagine if someone save its log-in information into the 
file...)

 

 I think that I even made working the "desktop sharing" feature. You simply 
need to register it as admin.

Hello 

Has anyone installed Lotus Sametime on a Citrix Server? We are looking to 
change the location of the connect.ini to each users profile or homeshare but 
there seems no easy way to do this. Has anyone come across this?

Thanks
