You can make changes to multiple ACLs on a server through the Multi-ACL Management dialog box in the Administration Client. For information about using the ACL dialog in the Notes client to edit an ACL for a single database, see Notes 8 Help.

To configure a database ACL:

1. Make sure that you have:

• Manager access in the database ACL.
• Created the roles and groups that you want to use in the ACL.

3. Click Files, and select one or more databases from the Domino data directory.

Note You can add the same entry to more than one database. You can also edit and remove entries from multiple databases. See the topic "Editing entries in multiple ACLs" later in this chapter.

5. Add entries for Notes users, servers, groups, and authenticated Internet users.

6. Set the access level for each entry.

7. (Optional) For additional security, select a user type for each entry.

8. (Optional) Refine the entries by restricting or allowing additional access level privileges.

9. (Optional) Assign roles to ACL entries. The role displays a check mark when selected.

10. (Optional) Enforce a consistent ACL across all replicas of the database.

11. (Optional) Assign an administration server to enable the Administration Process to automatically update ACL entries.

12. (Optional) To prevent users whose access levels are Depositor or No Access from using the operating system to copy the database, encrypt the database with the server ID through the local Encryption option. This ensures that the database, even when copied, is illegible to anyone who doesn't have access to the server ID.

13. Click OK to save your changes.
