Answer to question 2




Setting the Sametime 8.0 and higher Desktop Connect client's preferences










Technote (FAQ)




Question
How to set preferences for Sametime 8.0 and higher Connect clients.


Answer
There are several ways to set preferences within the Sametime® 8.0 and
higher Connect clients. Which method(s) you choose to implement will
depend on your business needs and requirements. The following are listed
in the order in which they take precedence.




Method 1: Set preferences using Sametime Policies

Sametime Policies can be used to set and force a subset of available
client-side preferences. Policies are accessed using the Sametime
administration client (i.e. the "Administer the Server" link). Any
preferences set using this method are:

1. Forced upon the end-users such that they cannot modify the setting, AND
2. Take highest precedence over any other method used to set client-side
preferences.

For more information on Sametime Policies, see the following document in
the Sametime Information Center: Policy Settings Table





Method 2: Set preferences manually using Sametime Connect client

End-users can manually set their client-side preferences from within the
Preferences panel of the Sametime Connect client. Any preferences set
using this method can be overwritten by Sametime Policies but take higher
precedence over Method 3, as described below.

Preferences set manually by an end-user from within the client's
Preferences panel are stored in the end-user's profile directory (either
within an XML document or a *.pref file).




Method 3: Set preferences using plugin_customization.ini

The plugin_customization.ini configuration file provides the ability to
customize the default settings for client-side preferences. This method
does not FORCE the settings to stick; it simply sets the default setting.

Administrators can use this to deploy clients to have consistent behavior
such that all end-users have a similar experience with the product. The
preferences set using this method will be overwritten by Methods 1 and 2.

Note: Preferences set using this method cannot be locked down.



The remainder of this document describes how to utilize Method 3 to set
default values for the majority of the available client-side preferences.





Instructions

To make the changes manually to a single client:
1. Backup the [Sametime Client Program
Directory]\plugin_customization.ini.

2. Modify the plugin_customization.ini by appending the appropriate flag.
(See below table for examples)

3. Save and close the configuration file.

4. Restart the client.

To utilize plugin_customization.ini for all users, reference technote
#1261055 . This technote provides a sample plug-in that demonstrates how
an administrator can provision all clients automatically.
