DIRECTORY SERVICES


Setting up Notes clients to use a directory server
You can set up Notes clients to use a different server than their mail servers for mail addressing. Type-ahead addressing searches a directory server only when Notes users don't use Mobile Directory Catalogs. Directory servers aren't used for LDAP directory searches initiated by Notes users.

To use Desktop settings, Setup settings, or a User Setup Profile to automate the setup:

1. Create a Desktop settings, Setup settings, or User Setup Profile document in the Domino Directory.

2. Enter the name of the directory server in the Directory server field in the Basics tab of the document.

3. Click Save & Close.

Alternatively, a user can add the name of a directory server manually in the "Domino directory server" field which is on the Servers tab of a Location document in the Personal Address Book.

For more information on Location documents, see Lotus Notes 6 Help.
