Notes Setup Best Practice

  • Category: Administration

I'm just wondering what the best practice for the following scenario is...

We have a user (currently using notes), and we want to configure a new PC for that user with Notes.

When you configure notes, you can specify the user's name, and it will ask you for password.  Our ID's are stored in a vault,

so the client will pull that id file in...but the admin won't know the user's password.

Option is to reset the password (but will lock out the other user)...or get the password from the user.

Is there a better way to do this?

Suggestion

Just copy over the data directory from the old pc to the new pc prior to the first launch.  Id the location of the data directory is different edit and modify the notes.ini first.

Your procedure is correct, but if you want the new client to look like and feel like the old client, you can copy the names.nsf bookmark.nsf cache.ndk and desktop8.ndk
