INSTALLATION

Setting up iNotes Web Access with Sametime
iNotes Web Access integrates Sametime® so that users can send and receive instant messages. Sametime is called "Chat" in iNotes Web Access.

Do not install Sametime and iNotes Web Access on the same Domino server. Sametime must be installed on a dedicated server. For complete information on installing Sametime, see the Sametime Installation Guide.
