[Serusers] can SCS-Client work with SER?

[Kevin Chu]

Hi Greg,

I got the same problem as you did, and still waiting for response
from the contact person.

One of the feature I like for the SCS client is that it can show
the capabilities of your buddies just on the buddy list. Another one
is it can select the IM in either secure (TLS) or insecure mode per
connection. However, TLS is only supported by the Advanced and Professional
versions as claimed.

Of course, we still need the SIP server/service to support TLS for using
that feature. Is ser/iptel.org supporting of planning to support TLS in
the public domain?

I think the demand for secured IM over public domain is getting higher, and
I personally would like to see the service similar to Yahoo business IM but
based on SIP.

Regards,
Kevin

Hi Bernie,

I tried to install the client and it offered me
the trial license, which I selected.  It then came
back to the same dialog again...I selected the
trial license again and it told me that I cannot do that...

So, I installed, but the trial license stuff has a glitch *or*
perhaps I have installed software in the past that uses the same trial
license stuff??

Anyway, I sent an email to the contact at the company
to see if there is something that can be done so I can test
it.  It looks like a great piece of software!
