Configuring allowed client types

You can define the types of clients that can connect to the IBM® Sametime® Community Server.

About this task

Follow these steps to specify the list of client types that are allowed to connect to the Sametime Community Server.

Procedure

  1. Open a text editor on the Sametime Community Server.
  2. Open the sametime.ini file located in the Sametime Community Server installation directory. For example, the default directory in Windows™ is C:\program files\lotus\domino.
  3. In the Config section, enter the client type IDs for the allowed client types in the VPS_ALLOWED_LOGIN_TYPES flag. If the flag is not specified or its value is empty, then all client types are allowed to connect to the server. It is a comma-separated list.
    Note: Once the VPS_ALLOWED_LOGIN_TYPES flag is used, you must update the values whenever you add new client types; otherwise the new client type cannot log in.
    [Config]
    VPS_ALLOWED_LOGIN_TYPES=130B,130A
    For a list of client types, see the Table of Client types that connect to a Sametime server article.

  4. Save the sametime.ini file.
