Configuring the Lotus Domino Server

This section describes how to verify and modify the Lotus Domino Server configuration so it can receive remote calls from the Remote Server over HTTP and DIIOP.

  1. Ensure that the server tasks Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and Domino Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (DIIOP) are running.
  2. Ensure that the notes.ini file contains the following string:
    ServerTasks=<any other tasks>, http, diiop
  3. Use the Lotus Notes Administrative client to verify or modify the Lotus Domino Server configuration:
    1. Click the Configuration tab. Under Server, select the relevant server document.
    2. Click the Security tab of the server document. In the Server Access section, verify that Portlet Suite users are listed in the following locations:
      • In the Access server list, check Server Access
      • In the Run unrestricted Java/Javascript/Com list, check Java/COM Restrictions.
    3. Click Ports | Internet Ports | IIOP and enable the Name & Password authentication option and confirm that TCP/IP Port Status is enabled.
      4. Note: Lotus Notes Portlets support only HTTP over SSL; they do not support DIIOP over SSL.
    4. Save and close the server document.
    5. On the People & Groups tab, verify that all users that connect to the Lotus Domino Server via the Browse the Portlets option have an Internet password.
Note: In order for attachments to work in Notes portlets, the Java application server service must have access to the share on the Domino server. You must grant access rights to the appropriate WebSphere or WebLogic user. To test your configuration, log in as the user and make sure you can access the share.
