Dialing Buddies

“Searching and Dialing from the CMA Directory”

on page 98.)

If you try to dial a buddy and the message “Resource unavailable” displays, the
buddy you’re trying to dial is offline and unavailable for a call.

If you try to dial a buddy and the message “Directory Server not responding”
displays and “CMA Directory not registered” scrolls on the status bar, access to
the CMA Directory is unavailable and the call won’t be placed.
