Domino @ Symetrik Design

We are about to implement a webmail server in a remote site. This site has a newly installed mail server cluster. One on the LAN and one in the DMZ to serve webmail/Internet replication.

I had previously setup the Web SSO fields in the server document for the machine that is sitting out in the DMZ. I added the server name to the Web SSO for LptaToken document. We already have this in place in a couple of locations, so we’ve proved the concept and know it works.

I placed the domlog.nsf database that I wanted on the server.

Once all that was in place, I tried accessing the server’s URL successfully directly and logged into a test mailbox without problem.

On all of my Domino servers, I load some of the Windows NT, 2000, or 2003 Resource Kit Utilities. See Microsoft KB article 927229 for the Windows 2000 Resource Kit Tools download page (You can download them individually and they’re free).

Here is the link to the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools

The individual tools I use are:
Kill.exe
now.exe
Sclist.exe
sleep.exe
srvinfo.exe
Timeout.exe
TLIST.EXE
WNTIPCFG.EXE (does not work on Windows 2003 unfortunately)

I put them into the c:\program files\rktools\ directory, which is the default if you install the whole package. I also put that directory into the path so that you can execute any of the commands from any directory or any script/batch file. Read the rest of this entry »

On the default Home page, it blatantly tells you what the key is to bring up a list of hot-keys.
Ctrl+Shift+L

Also, check out this weblink:

Today while trying to load my R8 client, my client got hung.

I have been having a strange problem where when I start Notes8, it sets there trying to load what I previously had loaded, and then offers up the dialog box “Do you want to replicate data with the server?” If I say either Yes or No, Notes stops responding.

I’m not sure why this is happening, but I’ve noticed some flakiness between switching between my admin ID and my personal ID frequently, which is how I work. Read the rest of this entry »
