How do I apply a patch for IBM Lotus Sametime Connect 8.0.2?

  • 772

I am packaging Sametime client 8.0.2 for deployment. I have received the binaries from our Notes Admins. They have also given me the following zip file along with original installation: "sametime.patches.update.site.20090317-0613.zip"

This file contains two folders "features" and "plugins" and "site.xml" file. The folders contain a bunch of *.jar files.

Can any help me figure out how to apply this patch to an installation? There don't seem to be any instructions with the original install or the patch. I've already asked my Admins for more info, but was wondering if anyone here has experience with it?

Thanks.
