How do I sign up to the IM network outside a domain network/LAN, e.g. from a home computer when Windows Authentication mode is enabled on the communication server?
You can login to the IM network outside a domain local network even the Windows Authentication mode is enabled on the server. For successful authentication you must enter your own Windows Login ID including domain name, i.e in the DOMAIN\account format. The messenger automatically resolves and delivers specified domain name on the server that gives you ability to authenticate to the communication server using Windows Authentication outside a domain LAN, for example from a home computer and other locations.
