When I load Messenger:mac I receive a Kerberos prompt but I am not using Kerberos authentication for my corporate account. Is there a way to disable this prompt everytime I load Messenger:mac? Otherwise I have to click "cancel" everytime I load Messenger:mac.

I get the same prompt and after I hit cancel I still can't get mac messenger 7 to work with OCS 2007.

Do you have instructions on how to get this to work with tiger and lepoard?

Hi,

Please try the following:
1.) Go into ~\System\Library\CoreServices.
2.) Launch the application Kerberos (not the Kerberos Agent).
3.) If there are an tickets listed in the dialog box that opens, have them
select the tickets, and click "destroy". (Check FIRST whether you are
actually using any of them).
4.) Quit the Kerberos app, and for good measure, reboot.

If that doesn't fix it (or if the you don't have old Kerberos tickets
present), delete the com.microsoft.Messenger.plist file, and re-run the
First Time Wizard.

Thanks,
Rebecca
