1.3.2 Lotus Domino server configuration

The Lotus Domino Server, where PIM and e-mail data will be retrieved from,

must be first installed. For sample instructions on installing the Lotus Domino

Server see IBM WebSphere Everyplace Access V5 Handbook for Developers

and Administrators Volume I: Installation and Administration, SG24-6462. It is

8 IBM WebSphere Everyplace Access V5 Handbook for Developers and Administrators Volume III: E-Mail and Database Synchronization

recommended that you use Lotus Domino Version 5.0.12 or later. Once the

installation is complete, the following configuration steps can be performed.

Verify HTTP and DIIOP tasks are always started

The Lotus Domino DIIOP PIM portlets require HTTP and DIIOP to retrieve PIM

and e-mail data. We need to verify that both the HTTP and DIIOP tasks are

started when the Domino Server is started.

1. Open the file <Domino_root>\notes.ini, where <Domino_root> is the directory

where Domino is installed on the server.

2. Search for the parameter ServerTasks.

3. Verify that the parameter values includes HTTP and DIIOP. If the values are

not there, add them. For example:

ServerTasks=<other tasks>,HTTP,DIIOP

4. Save your changes.

5. When you restart the Domino Server, you should see messages in the

console indicating that these tasks have started.

Provide full host name

For every Domino server you plan to use, the fully qualified Internet hostname

must be entered in the names.nsf file. It includes the authentication server and

any Lotus Domino e-mail database servers.

Usually the names.nsf file is populated automatically, but it is a good rule to

make sure of it, performing the following steps for each Lotus Domino server:

1. From Lotus Notes, open the names.nsf file (click File

→ Database → Open

and select the current Domino Server).

2. Select IBM’s Directory and click Open.

8. Click the Administration tab and add * to the Owner and Administrators

field. (Optional) Note that to access the e-mail with iNotes™ (Web access) or

from the WEA portal using the portlets, you will need to use the full user

name. Instead, if you want to use the short name/user ID, you must edit the

following information on the server: On the Security tab, in the Internet

Access section, change to “More name variations with lower security.”
