“Bob Picciano, who has been the Vice President of Sales for Information Management (the DB2 brand). As far as I can remember, we have not had a Lotus GM come in from a sales role.”

I guess it can ony make sense. Lotus has probably it’s strong portfolio in a very long time. So the technology is in place, the portfolio is as strong as it’s ever been with the new Notes 8 client, rock-solid Lotus Domino 8, Lotus Connections, Sametime family of products, and Quickr. I can only hope for stronger sales and more agressive (in the good way marketing from Lotus. Not only in the US, but also in Brazil and other geos. We surely need better sales and marketing efforts here in Brazil.

The install detected that the Domino server ID is password protected. This password is required to complete the Sametime server configuration. Enter the password, and choose Next to validate the password.

I’ve gone into the ID Properties to double check, no password is defined. Has anyone run into this before? Haven’t had an issue with Sametime 7.5.1.

UPDATE: Thanks to Chris Gambrell for the tip on the STSkipDominoPasswordCheck=true environment variable which did the trick.
