DIRECTORY SERVICES


Using directory assistance to prevent the LDAP service from searching the primary Domino Directory
You can set up directory assistance for the primary IBM® Lotus® Domino® Directory to prevent a server that runs the LDAP service from using the primary Domino Directory when processing LDAP requests. For example, you might want the LDAP service to use a secondary Domino Directory, but not the primary Domino Directory.

The primary Domino Directory from which you exclude LDAP searches can be local, or can be remote if the server running the LDAP service has a Configuration Directory.

If you set up directory assistance to prevent LDAP searches of the primary Domino Directory, the key options to select in the Directory Assistance document are the following ones.

On the Basics tab:

1. Next to "Domain Type" select Notes.

2. Next to "Domain Name" enter the domain of the servers that run the LDAP service.

3. Next to "Make this domain available to" deselect "LDAP Clients."

4. Next to "Group Authorization" select No to reserve the use of "Group Authorization" for another directory in the directory assistance database.

On the Replicas tab, do one of the following:
