Pidgin Messenger @ Office

Got approval for using Fedora @ office. But what about the MS Office Communicator or Cisco Webex Connect?  How do I use it with Fedora?

No problem. Use Pidgin Messenger!

I need to configure Cisco Webex Connect.

Install Pigdin and Pidgin Sipe

Code:
yum install pidgin


Code:
yum install pidgin-sipe

For Ubuntu use "apt-get install" command instead.

Start Pidgin

Account > Manage Account > Add

In the Basic Tab enter the required info


Click Add and you are good to go!

Once added from the main window enable the account

Accounts > Enable Accounts > Select Your Account

You can also configure MS Communicator.
Protocol that needs to be selected is "Office Communicator"
