[IPOFF]

Dear All,

Using Windows 8 64bit, running Avaya IPOffice at 8.1(43) with softconsole. Found error when login, it prompts "Not an authorized user".

No matter i change the compatibilities of it to win7 or xp. still not help.

I turn off all firewall settings and disable NOD already, but still not help.

however, when i use xp, it works fine.

pls help help.

I've already raised a case with Avaya for this.
Fix date is meant to be 29th of November.

You can muck around with the compatibility settings, which will make it login intermittently if you set it to Windows xp mode.

Is windows 8 Supported by Avaya?

I wasn't able to get soft console working (8.1 rls 67)on my windows 8 laptop.
Wasted a bunch of time on it, found it worked just perfect on my win 7 desktop.

Wallysworld, it seems we've encountered the same. anyway, waiting is only option.
