I having difficulty setting up pidgin to work with my company's microsoft 365's communicator lync 2013 (not 2010) account.

I either receive a message stating authentication failed, or Incompatible authentication scheme chosen: NTLM depending upon the user agent values used from this wiki

It appears that both the user agent values that start with UCCAPI provide authentication failed error, which I'm guessing is "closer" to the solution.

I have triple checked that the password is correct.

Below are some images of my settings (I have changed the company name to "company" for annonymity.

enter image description here

I am running pidgin with a script in order to fix a write error issue:

export NSS_SSL_CBC_RANDOM_IV=0
pidgin -d

I am also using the latest version of SIPE (1.10.1) by using this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~aavelar/+archive/ppa

What settings do I need to change/add to get it to work?
