      Description:
      You have enabled Lotus® Sametime® integration for your Lotus® Domino® Web Access 8 users. Microsoft® Internet Explorer browser users are able to enable instant messaging and chat features with other users without a problem. However, Mozilla Firefox browser users report that they do not see the Instant Messaging button in the Domino Web Access (DWA) user interface, and the option to enable Instant Messaging does not display in the DWA user preferences.

      Additional steps are needed to configure Sametime Awareness for Firefox users:

      1. Add the iNotes_WA_DisableFirefoxAwareness=0 notes.ini parameter to the notes.ini of the DWA server.

      2. Copy the signed version of stlinks.jar into the stlinks directory (from the stlinks/signed directory) to each stlinks directory (both on the Sametime server and the DWA server).

      3. Set up the Instant Contact List in Domino Web Access using the steps outlined in the Administrator Help Guide in the topic "Setting up Domino Web Access with Sametime".

      After making these modifications, Firefox users should be able to enable instant messaging in the DWA user preferences and log on to Sametime from within DWA.
