I need your experience regarding silent installation and unattended user setup in Lotus-Notes 8.5

My goal is to do a Lotus Notes 8.5 "First-Time-Setup" without any user interaction.

1. At fist time start up of Lotus Notes 8.5 the Client should come up automatically without any prompt.
2. Instant Messaging should also login automatically using client SSO (Token based single sign on)

In R7 it works very well
I create an mst file and add some notes.ini parameters as you see below:

_____________________________________________
My Notes.ini before Lotus-Notes first time Setup

[Notes]
ConfigFile=C:\lotus\notes\data\config.txt
IM_USE_CANONICAL_NAME=1
IM_ENABLE_SSO=1
KitType=1
Directory=C:\lotus\notes\data
InstallType=6

_____________________________________________
My config.txt file looks like this:

Username=USERID
Keyfilename=c:\lotus\notes\data\USERID.id
Domino.Name=MyHome/Server
Domino.Address=MyHome.serer.dns.name.com
Domino.Port=TCPIP
Domino.Server=1
AdditionalServices=0
AdditionalServices.NetworkDial=0
Replication.Threshold=9999
Replication.Schedule=0
IM.Server=MySametime/Server
IM.Port=1533
IM.ConnectWhen=0
IM.Protocol=0
_____________________________________________

Using this information Notes R7 and IM starts up first time without any prompt.

But i despair in Lotus Notes 8.5
The First-Time Setup works well, without any prompt. But IM will not login automatically.
In Lotus Notes 8.5 i have to setup manually IM (Server Communities, Authentication server, Use token based single sign on, automatically login and other settings)
How can i prepare the config file or the notes.ini or what ever that IM logs in automatically using client SSO during First-Time setup ?
Seems that the config file variables are changed ?

Please push me in the right direction

Best regards
Dominik
