For every Document Manager user who has a Notes ID, there must be a
Person document in the Address book (names.nsf). However, users do not
need a Person document to access Document Manager. Users can be listed in
an LDAP directory, or in another address book that is configured through
directory assistance.
You do not need to get the user list exactly right during setup. Your Library
Administrators can adjust the user list afterwards by editing the System
Profile document in the Library database.
Notes client users
There are no special requirements for Document Manager users who access
the libraries as databases from a Notes client. If they need to access libraries
from within ODMA applications, they must have the Desktop Enabler
installed and set up on their workstations.
HTTP users
For users who will access Document Manager through HTTP clients —
either Web browsers or the Desktop Enabler via the HTTP protocol — there
are a few things to keep in mind.
•
If you have users who will use both HTTP and Notes clients, the Person
records for each of these users must have an HTTP password. This will
let them log on via a Web browser or the Desktop Enabler via the HTTP
protocol.
•
The Domino HTTP server can access databases only on a single Domino
server. If you are using both HTTP and Notes clients, be sure that your
Notes clients do not create file cabinets on servers other than the server
where Document Manager is installed, because the HTTP clients will be
unable to access them. When running the Setup procedure, you will
choose No for the setup option “Should Notes users be allowed to
specify a server when creating file cabinets?” to restrict file cabinet
creation to the server that contains the library.
•
Document Manager uses your foreign domain (if specified) when
sending e-mail to newly-registered browser users. It also enters this
domain into the Mail Domain field of the Person document that it
creates.
•
The HTTP server cannot access databases on other servers; therefore, if
you plan to use server-to-server replication, be sure to replicate the
Library and all file cabinets.
