Re: Pidgin - installing over LAN
The simplest method to restrict pidgin to only allowing Sametime accounts is to simply remove the plugins for all other account types. However, this doesn't stop people from simply reinstalling those plugins. To prevent them from doing that you would need to rebuild pidgin without plugin support and statically enable sametime support. There is very little in the way of administrative override control in pidgin, it simply isn't designed for that at the moment. If you were building pidgin yourself you could go with the simplest route and simply hide the UI for configuration options you did not want people to be setting (which wouldn't prevent them from making changes to the config file manually but will stop most people from making the changes). If that wasn't enough you could dive in and actually disable whatever functionality you wanted on top of that as well. You could also, though I wouldn't really recommend this, simply write a plugin which listens for configuration changes and resets your desired configuration instead. Though I imagine this would likely frustrate users when they first run into it and they could always simply delete the plugin. -Etan ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?

I am going to create MSI Are you aware that, the last I heard, there are no sametime users amongst the Pidgin developers, so sametime is essentially unsupported. Also, the key feature of Pidgin is that it allows the simultaneous use of multiple accounts with multiple protocols; I wonder why you don't just use a native sametime client, if you want to deny that capability? -- David Woolley Emails are not formal business letters, whatever businesses may want.
