USER AND SERVER CONFIGURATION
Note You can modify user settings at any time once you add the user to the User Registration Queue by selecting the user from the queue and then making changes. You can also modify certain settings for multiple users at once by selecting the users in the queue and making changes. You can cancel user registration and clear all fields at any time by clicking the red X.
Storing user IDs in Notes ID vault
The user registration interface now contains the setting "In Notes ID vault" on the ID Info tab. This setting is not modifiable in the user registration interface. If a user's effective policy has a Security policy settings document that assigns the user to a vault, the "In Notes ID vault" value is selected. If the server you are using is a pre-Domino 8.5 server, the field label changes to "ID vault not supported for this version of Domino."
Hosted environments
If you are working in a hosted environment, when registering users, ensure that you are using a certifier that was created for the hosted organization into which you are registering the users. This applies regardless of whether you are using a certifier and password or the server-based CA.
Roaming users
If you are registering Domino server roaming users, on the ID Info tab of the Register Person - New Entry dialog box, choose "In Domino Directory" as the location for storing user IDs if you want roaming users to access their IBM® Lotus® Notes® IDs from their Contacts application. If you do not choose the "In Domino Directory" option, roaming users must either store their Notes ID on a file server or physically carry their Notes ID with them on a diskette or other storage media. If you elect to store the user ID in a file and in the IBM® Lotus® Domino® Directory, the user IDs are stored in the user's Contacts application.
Note If you create Domino server-based roaming users and do not elect to store their user IDs in the Domino Directory, but later decide to store those user IDs in the Domino Directory, disable the roaming user option, select the option to store the user ID in the Domino Directory, and then enable the roaming user option again.
To use Advanced registration with the Domino Administrator
1. Make sure you have the following access before you begin registration:
3. From the Servers pane, choose the server to work from.
4. Select Domino Directories, and then select People.
5. From the Tools pane, click People - Register.
6. Enter the certifier password and click OK.
Note The Certifier Information Recovery Warning dialog box appears. Review the information in the dialog box, select the check box and click OK.
7. Click Advanced.
8. From the Basic tab, complete these fields:
Choose the password encryption strength (or password key width). The encryption key that protects the Notes keys that are stored in the user ID file is derived from the password. The stronger the encryption strength of the password, the stronger the encryption key that protects the Notes keys.
Note If you are enabling roaming user for a current release Notes user, see the topic "Using Domino policy to register and configure roaming users" in this guide.
If you select Other Internet, POP, or IMAP, the Internet password is set by default.
If you select Lotus iNotes, you can change other user registration selections to Lotus iNotes defaults by clicking Yes when prompted.
If you select Other or Other Internet, enter a forwarding address. This address is the user's current address, where the user wants mail to be sent. For example, if a user temporarily works at a different location and/or uses a different mail system, the user can have her mail forwarded to that new address. Or, a user may resign from the company but leave a forwarding address so that mail addressed to the old address is forwarded to the new location.
This field appears if the check box "Create a Notes ID for this person" is not selected.
If you are working in a hosted environment and are registering a user to a hosted organization, be sure to register that user with a certifier created for that hosted organization.
