Configure Remote Access to the Domino Server

This procedure is for the Lotus Domino administrator.

Follow these steps:

1. Verify that the Domino server is accessible through the network, using TCP/IP. You must be able to ping the server using its Internet host name.
2. Enable the HTTP and DIIOP tasks on the Domino server, in one of these ways:
   • Add these tasks to the ServerTasks variable in the server’s notes.ini file
   • Load these tasks at the server console
3. Use Domino Administrator to modify the server document to allow and restrict access as desired. The following are some suggested settings:
   1. On the Security tab, in the Server Access section:
      • Access server – All users can access this server
      • Not access server – blank
      • Create new databases – blank (= everyone)
      • Create replica databases – LocalDomainAdmins, LocalDomainServers, and the Domino Administrator account used by the LND Connector if that account is not a member of LocalDomainAdmins
   2. On the Security tab, in the Programmability Restrictions section:
      • Run unrestricted methods and operations – the Domino server name, the Domino Administrator account used by the LND Connector
      • Run restricted LotusScript Java agents – the Domino Administrator account used by the LND Connector
   3. On the Security tab, in the Internet Access section:
      • Internet authentication – Few name variations with higher security
   4. On the Ports tab, under Internet Ports, for DIIOP:
      • Authentication options
      • Name & password - Yes
      • Anonymous - Yes
   5. On the Internet Protocols tab, under HTTP, in the R5 Basics section
      • Allow HTTP clients to browse databases – Yes
