Recently one of my friend being an IT Manager of a company asked me how do we block users from manually saving Sametime chat transcripts.
Though they have use desktop policy to set 'Do not save transcripts automatically', but a user can still manually save a chat. How can you prevent users from manually saving their chat transcripts?
Here is the solution, there is a notes.ini parameter that can be included in the notes.ini to prevent a user to manually save their chats.
IM_ALLOW_SAVE_CHAT=0
This can manually be placed in the user's notes.ini file or can be pushed via a Desktop settings document within a policy under Notes.ini tab.
