I am deployiing Windows Messenger 5.1 enterprise wide and want SIP enabled by
default instead of .NET. I am thinking a registry key would do the trick but
need to know the location and perameters for the key.
Thanks!
 
Greetings,

You can find the Messenger Policies to do this in the \Server\RtcClient.adm file that comes
with Live Communications Server. However, the exact registry keys to do this are:
HKCU\ Software\Policies\Microsoft\Messenger\Client\{9b017612-c9f1-11d2-8d9f-0000f875c541}
REG_DWORD, "Disabled", set to 1

and
HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Messenger\Client\{83D4679E-B6D7-11D2-BF36-00C04FB90A03}

REG_DWORD, "Disabled", set to 1



You can also set these under HKLM to affect anyone who logs in.
