A customer would like  to set “No Letterhead” and prevent changes for all users using policies but it not work.

I found a SPR LMAN6H6HB7 and the workaround is:

the  "No letterhead" setting does go into effect correctly if it's changed to 'set value when modified' and changed back to 'set value and prevent changes.

1- go to the Policy Settings document and edit it
2- change from " Set Value and prevent changes" to "Set value whenever modified" , save & Close
3- Control&Shift&F9 to refresh the views
4- Go back to the Policy setting and edit the document, Set this time back to " Set Value and prevent changes"
5- Push the policy now to users, " tell adminp process mail"
6- Restart notes client, authenticate with server and check letterhead

and it works 🙂

Starting a review of Domino environment today.

Our goal is to reduce the size of databases and enable DAOS.

I start converting all the databases (test server) to ODS 51. To covert i use the command load compact -c -v -n.

The switch -c is copy style, -v enables the “Compress document data” database property and -n enables “Compress database design”.

The next step used was load compact -c -ZU to upgrade attachments to LZ1 compression from Huffman compression.

Using this two steps we save 63% of disk space in one database. DAOS is not enabled yet.

From TN 1182264

This behavior can occur if you have not set the “Enforce server access setting” field to Yes.  The default value is No, which does not apply the “Not Access Server” information to Web (HTTP) traffic.  You must set this field to Yes to have the HTTP task honor the settings on the Security tab.

The “Enforce server access setting” field is in the Server document on the Ports -> Internet Ports -> Web tab.  After changing the value to Yes, restart the HTTP task to apply the changes.  In one particular case, the changes did not take effect with restarting the HTTP task, so the customer restarted the server.

Today i finished the setup of  Sametime for a client in my city.  The MS AD administrator asked about how to prevent users from loggin in  based on a Group.
Sametime doesn’t have this kind of police. If you use the TN 1166845 the solution is to add a new attribute for every user. :-(.

This workaround doesn’t meet our requirements (restricting using groups). I change the LDAP search filter in stconfig.nsf from;

Search filter for resolving person names: (&(objectclass=organizationalPerson)(|(cn=%s*)(givenname=%s*)
(sn=%s*)(mail=%s*)))
Search filter to use when resolving a user name to a distinguished name: (&(objectclass=organizationalPerson)(|(cn=%s)(givenname=%s)
(sn=%s)(mail=%s)))

To:

Search filter for resolving person names: (&(objectclass=organizationalPerson)(memberOf=CN=GroupName,OU=OUName,DC=domain,DC=com,DC=br)(|(cn=%s*)(givenname=%s*)
(sn=%s*)(mail=%s*)))
Search filter to use when resolving a user name to a distinguished name: (&(objectclass=organizationalPerson)(memberOf=CN=GroupName,OU=OUName,DC=domain,DC=com,DC=br)(|(cn=%s)(givenname=%s)
(sn=%s)(mail=%s)))

Reboot the Sametime and it will work.

Yesterday i started installing the Sametime 8.5.x for 1200 users. The client will use virtually all the capabilities, audio, video, integration with Outlook and mobile clients.

Domino Administrator is not available in Brazilian Portuguese. Some Domino Administrators want to use Notes e Administrator in native language.

To change the Administrator (English version) to Brazilian Portuguese:

• Copy the MUIpt-BR from an Notes installed in Brazilian Portuguese to the same folder in your Notes/Administrator
• Put this 3 lines in your notes.ini:

AltNameLanguage=pt
ContentLanguage=pt-BR
UserInterface=pt-BR

Using NotesDatabase.CreateDocumentCollection on an unopened database is known to cause a crash. This issue was reported to Quality Engineering as SPR# AGUD7LPRDW. For safety, use NotesDatabase.IsOpen to test before calling this method.

Dim coll As NotesDocumentCollection
if db.IsOpen Then
Set coll = db.CreateDocumentCollection
...

Other methods for creating empty collections, described in the Domino Designer wiki, are useful in earlier versions, but NotesDatabase.CreateDocumentCollection is faster.

The compat task does not accept tell  commands according to the Domino Administration Help.
 But if you want to stop compact task through a program you can use the command TELL COMPACT QUIT.
