Sametime Gateway Toolkit (new for 7.5.1)

The Sametime toolkits for 7.5 and beyond are only available in the Sametime SDK, not individually. You

can download the Lotus Sametime 7.5.1 SDK, and previous Sametime SDK and toolkit releases, by using
the "Lotus Sametime 7.5.1 SDK" link on the Sametime server home page, or by going to the following IBM
developerWorks site:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/downloads/toolkits.html

The Sametime SDK is packaged in a .zip archive file. To install the SDK, simply extract the contents of

this file to any location on your local drive. After extracting the files, see the file readme.txt in the
st751sdk

directory for important information about the SDK. To uninstall the SDK, simply delete the

st751sdk

directory.

Note: The Sametime C++ Toolkit and COM Toolkit were not updated for the Sametime 7.5 or 7.5.1

releases, and are not included in the Sametime SDK. The previous releases of these toolkits are still
available on the developerWorks site, and should work with the Sametime 7.5.x releases, but there are no
plans to further enhance these toolkits.

Pre-installation steps for Linux Sametime Server 7.5.1

Following are the steps to take before installing a Linux Sametime 7.5.1 server:

1. Configure the default number of open file descriptors so Domino and Sametime can run without

warnings. Add the following to the end of /etc/security/limit.conf:
*

hard

nofile 65535

*

soft

nofile 65535

2. Disable the firewall. For example, on RedHat, this can be achieved by running the following (it only

needs to be run once; configuration is persistent):

chkconfig iptables off

service iptables stop

3. Make sure that the host file(/etc/hosts/) has an entry for the local hostname, where the server is

installed and running.
