6.2.3 Configuring the Domino Web Access portlet

Use the following steps to help you add the Domino Web Access portlet to the Mail tab of a

Workplace Services Express server:

1. Log into the Workplace Services Express server with the Workplace Services Express

administrator user ID and password, for example wpsadmin.

2. Click the Mail tab and click the Add Content portlet, which is the bar on the lower right

Tip: If you log into Workplace Services Express as the Workplace Services Express

administrator and configure the Domino Web Access portlet, the portlet is then ready

for use by all users. If you log in as a user to perform the steps that follow, the portlet is

configured only for that user.
