Altiris IRC Chat Room

As an Altiris Administrator, I found it fairly easy to find solutions to my problems from either Connect, Altirigos or the Knowledge base. Then I took a Notification class with 8 other Altiris Administrators and discovered that I was learning more about Altiris and its products just by talking with my classmates on our breaks. I decided that Altiris should have a chat room where Administrators can discuss issues and help others struggling. I was unable to find a chat room so I created one of my own. I decided to use IRC because it was easy enough that anybody could use it.

So please join us on IRC for discussions, help, solutions and chatting.

If you use Firefox, there's an IRC client add-on that works like a charm.

You can get it here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16
