Read more about this topic  Expert Technical Advice: Featured Expert: Mathew Newman Category: Lotus Instant Messaging and Sametime Dear Matt: I have successfully installed Domino 6.5 on Linux. I have also installed the incremental update on it. The problem I encountered is that I cannot see the chat icon when I use iNotes to access my mail account. I also have Sametime server running on a separate machine. I have a specified link in the configuration document already. I was getting the Icon previously, but now it is not visible.

Site Exclusives: >> Notes plug-in unburdens remote workers One company's quest for mobile data synchronization ended with a Notes plug-in that literally lifted a weight off employees' shoulders. >> Chapter Download: Program control statements This chapter from the book C++: A Beginner's Guide, by Herbert Schildt, discusses the statements that control a program's flow of execution. There are three categories of program control statements: selection statements, which include the if and the switch; iteration statements, which include the for, while and do-while loops; and jump statements, which include break, continue, return and goto. Except for return, which is discussed later in the book, the remaining control statements, including the if and for statements, are examined here. Tip of the Week: Create a doclink between two unrelated Notes docs A SearchDomino.com reader recently submitted a question asking for help creating a DocLink between two unrelated documents in the same database. The person tried several frustrating attempts using the Formula language to solve the problem, but it only worked about 50% of the time, and was that far too unreliable for a production application. Expert Scott Lemieux has all too often had the same frustrating experience using Formula to solve problems like these, so he developed a solution for this scenario that uses LotusScript. Change views selection criteria on the fly Users want to select on the fly what documents were included in the calendar view, based on a designated category. The problem became more difficult when the designated categories were dynamic (i.e., changeable and able to be added to or deleted from). This tip creates two agents that enables users to change the views selection criteria on the fly. Find and manage all agents This tip contains an application that scans all databases on nominated server(s) and creates reports of all agents found -- including private agents, which are normally hidden. >> Check out all our tips.  Site Highlights ITKnowledgeExchange: Beta testers wanted ITKnowledgeExchange is a place where IT professionals can share ideas, expertise and get those difficult technical questions answered by other IT pros.
