Lotus says you have 1 week from today till you expire. Are you ready?

Unless you haven't been reading along in emails and living under administration rocks, you have till May 18th 2009 to replace the following:


The certificate for some Java applets in Lotus Domino 6.5.x, Domino 7.0.x, Domino 8.0.x, and Domino 8.5 have an expiration date of May 18, 2009. Starting May 19th, Web users will see a dialog with a message similar to one of the following when loading a Web page that contains a Java applet from the Domino server:

"The digital signature was generated with a trusted certificate but has expired or is not yet valid."
"The security certificate has expired or is not yet valid."


As this was just not enough, do not forget about the Sametime expirations the exact same day also:


The Lotus Sametime Meeting Server applets are signed with a VeriSign certificate that is valid between May 15, 2006 and May 18, 2009. To prevent users who load any of the Sametime applets such as the Meeting Room Client or Directory applet from seeing a warning message as of May 19th


Want technotes?  Oh we have them..  Domino and Sametime

Now don't think I waited till the last minute to tell you.  Lotus held off to get the digital signatures right.
